Nope. The standing figure is Jesus, and the reverse inscription are abbreviations of his titles: IC XC NIKA, Jesus Christ Victorious. It's a Byzantine Empire copper follis, "anonymous" type, class C, dating from the time of emperor Michael IV, 1034-1041 AD. The second coin in this thread is the same type.
