    I can only think of Tetricus for this 'radiate' ruler.
    Can anyone help me here, please?

    Not Roman, this looks Greek. Might be the God Helios.

    I’m not too sure what the Greek on the reverse is.

    PHILONOS(?)
    Not familiar with that word

    PHILÎNOS is a Greek name that derives from the Greek “phílos (φίλος)”, meaning “beloved, dear, loving, friendly”
    if that's even what it says...

    Google translation of 'FILWNOS' is 'FRIEND'.
