    Looks like Severus Alexander from Joppa but I’m not near any references to check the legends.

    Thank you so much Barry, pretty sure you're right! Sucks it looks to have bronze D :(

    It doesn't look like bronze disease to me, just typical oxidation. If a soft powder starts accumulating, literally growing out of some spots and building up on the surface, then you've got bronze disease and will need to take action. But that doesn't seem likely in your case; enjoy your coin.

    BTW, using Barry's info, I typed "Severus Alexander Joppa" into acsearch.info. Here's one of several examples that come up that look like it might be your coin:
