Help with identification

So I have been given two coins as payment for a newsletter I wrote for the club. My specialty is earlier Roman silver but I am trying to branch out. The one was really easy. I got it in under 5 minutes. It is Diocletian ric 621 and it's a great looking coin. This one I am having a bit more trouble on. Given that this coin was given as a challenge could you all not tell me outright but just give me some pointers on where to go on this coin?

Weight is 8.14g

Diameter is 20-25mm (slightly larger than a penny)

Please rate my handwriting

I have just started learning sumerian from digital Hammurabi on YouTube. Being a wild clay ceramist (one of many many things I do for fun) I thought I would make my first tablet from clay from my backyard. I made my stylus from firewood and a lot of sanding.

How wood you rate my handwriting? I am very much open to critique!

Airbrush not spraying water

SOLVED I soaked put isopropyl alcohol in the paint well and let it sit for an hour and when I came back it was black. I am guessing there was a little bit of paint in the airbrush body blocking paint flow

Thank you everyone who helped!

I am really new to airbrushing. my airbrush is not spraying anything. Before it had been slowing (less air leaving the brush/paint) I took it apart cleaned it put it back together and it was better but not perfect. Today it won't spray anything. I have taken EVERYTHING apart and I can find anything. It also will not back flush

I clean/after every use

Clean the needle after every use

Complete clean all paint out from cup.

If I hold the nozzle down without the cap nothing it will back flush (when the needle is out)

When I screw the nozzle cap on tighter the compressor starts lowering and then becomes intermittent.

I am assuming it has to do with there being something in the nozzle but I can't find anything

I am using the gaahleri gts-06 work serenair mini

I can answer any questions/give photos if needed

Possible ancient middle eastern/holy Land/idk coin

I have recently gotten this coin unattributed as a challenge but since it has been a while I need some help. It weighs 3.6 grams on the dot. About the size of a denarius. 1.5-2.5mm thick. If you need anything else just let me know. Btw I really only collect early Roman so this is completely out of my wheelhouse

Also no clue what the orientation it should be in and my phone kept switching the photos around
