18mm 

6.8g

I think it’s bronze

Standing figure maybe virtus?

Large S

3mm thick

So far, nothing on our catalog.

But found a clue, bronze/copper tetradrachms from Alexandria are similar to yours.

Here's an example: N#143973 

Ah, and the reverse lettering is L S, it's a greek form of writing a regnal year.

After searching on RPC and Wildwinds, this is the closest one:

https://rpc.ashmus.ox.ac.uk/type/76065

Which is kind of a variant of the coin I linked above, there are specimens with both L and S at left of the figure and specimens with one letter at a side and the figure between them.

 

I think you can use this Numista entry we already have for entering your coin into your collection.
