The vast bulk of the Hermaios coinage consists of posthumous issues. Lifetime issues, especially the helmeted type like the coin offered here, are quite rare!
Although the figure on the reverse is normally described as Zeus, it is very clear from the radiate head on this coin that Mithra was intended, or at least a syncretic version of Zeus which encompassed Mithra.
