It's a very crude-looking portrait. I'd guess it was Roman Provincial rather than proper Roman, but there's not enough text left to even tell whether the language on the coin is Greek or Latin.

In my opinion the text is in Latin. The seller suggested that "It might be Nerva or Vitellius or someone else".

They seem to think it's a contemporary counterfeit of Nerva. Interesting.
