I’ve been trying to figure out what the obverse legend is and for the life of me even with my zoomed loupes I can’t seem to make out who this coin is attributed to.. is there anybody that may know or will help identifying? Thanks in advance this is probably really obvious and i’m just a numb skull

Thanks guys! I was on the fence if it was maximinian or maxentius just goes to show I still have much to learn while trying to identify. I appreciate the help & replies! I think this is the first coin of a tertarch I have
