Help with identifying this coin please.

At first I thought this was a blob of copper and it sat in a paper bowl I have on my desk for months. The other day I was going through the bowl and I took a much closer look at this. Low and behold I saw a face on the obverse and some marking on the reverse. The coin is only about 3/8's of an inch across and was real hard to take a photo of. I know this coin is well worn, but any help you can give whould be very appreciated. These boards have NEVER let me down, but I know this is a though one.

I have no idea what type of coin it is but I can certainly see a big nose.

It appears to be copper or bronze.

That was my guess.

Yep, Parthian or nearby Elymais. Check out the portraits on this CoinArchives search and you'll see a bunch of portraits of similar style.
