It's 21 x 26mm. All I can make out is SMC on the obverse and LIP on the reverse.

The portrait and what I can jumble out of the text makes me think it's Diocletian.

Looks like an As of Claudius to me.

Obverse: (CLAU)DIVS CAESAR (AVG P M TRP IMP) or (AVG P M TRP IMP P P)
Reverse: LIB(ERTAS AVGUST)A SC

One of these:

Once someone says it, you can see it.
Don't know how I confused the DIVS CAESAR bit.
Time for more coffee methinks

Thanks @Tanman2001 I really didn't think it could be identified because of the major portion of the coin is missing. Thanks again!
