I can read KIDEON in Greek on reverse of this bronze coin weighing 8.77 g. The obverse shows an Emperor whose head dress is not usual to me. Please tell me if you guess anything about it. Thank you.

Right. The mint is Chalkis sub-Libano in Syria. Mine is listed Butcher 15. It has Delta on third line, AE22. This coin was found together with 2 black stones. They attract the magnet. Out of fun and curiosity, I allow myself to post them.
