OBVERSE

CONSTANTI-NVSMAXAVG [CONSTANTINVS MAX AVG]; bust r., rosette-diadem, dr., cuir.

REVERSE

GLOR-IAEXERC-ITVS [GLORIA EXERCITVS]; two soldiers stg. facing one another, holding reversed spear and resting hand on shield; between them two standards. [branch]PLG in exergue.

NOT IN RIC

UNLISTED FOR RULER. RIC lists this rare issue only for Constantine II and Constantius II (p. 140). Coin may be regarded as an ancient imitation (also other types with this m.m. and rev. are questionable). Otherwise, should be listed before LYONS 268.
