This is the best I can do photo wise, hope it's enough to make an i.d.. Many thanks in advance, it is bronze underneath.

Nice coin hedgehog, It's really nice when they turn up & I'm sure someone will help with a positive I.D.

Well found.  :)

This looks like an AE3 of Fausta, with Spes or Salus reverse. See the various types here and you should find a match:
