The obv. legend ends with CEBAC, not CEBACT. This coin is not Imhoof LS 10; Mionnet IV, 356 or SNG Munich 314 corr, all of which have B ARX or ARX in the rev. legend. This coin only has EPI KYEINTOY AR MAIONWN. The closest is Leypold I, 1071 with EPI KYEINTOY A MAIONWN. So this is an unpublished Leypold I 1071 var.
