Big Nose, Need Help with Greek

Hey guys -

So this appears to be an AE Tetradrachm from Alexandria Egypt with Roma seated on a shield (reverse). I've been spending a lot of time trying to ID based on the bust (since my Greek is shit), but the only ones that look similar are Gordian or Philip the Arab. Anyways, I was really hoping someone would be able to help me ID the bust and I can try and get the rest. Thanks!

I would help, if you hadn't called me big nose!

 

Haha, looking back on it - It doesn't read the way I thought it would.

 

Looks like this one @Roman Collector has.

 

Looks exactly like an Aurelian profile (like the nostril), and the legend (AVPHΛIANOC) suggests that as well.

 

Thanks @dadms & @Justin Lee ! I really appreciate your help

 

could be worse >
