I'm no great Byzantine expert and stand to be corrected, but I believe it's this one (though yours is not a contemporary imitation) https://www.acsearch.info/search.html?id=1048455


Justinian I. AE follis. 527-565 AD, Constantinople. DN IVSTINIANVS PP AVG, pearl diademed, draped, cuirassed bust right / Large M. star to left, cross above, cross right, officina letter below, mintmark CON. SB 158, DOC 28.

It looks to me like [...]TI-NVS PP AVG, Justin I rather than Justinian.

I agree with likely Justin. I have a similar one and also had this problem identifying it initially.
