That is a Nerva with that Trajan/Lloyd Christmas (hilarious reference btw) haircut if I've ever seen one! Also Trajan usually is shown to have a had a bizarrely long/the predatoresque top of head.

IMP NERVA CAES AVG P M TR P COS III P P; Laureate head of Nerva right / SALVS PUBLICA; Salus seated left holding ears of corn. RIC 9; C 132.
