That looks like a Lucius Verus afro to me. I can't remember the reverse off the top of my head.

 

I think it looks more like Aelius. Perhaps this coin?

RIC 1067/ Sear 3993; Aelius Caesar AE Dupondius. L AELIVS CAESAR, bare head right / TR POT COS II S-C, Spes standing left, holding flower and lifting skirt.
