I got this as a Constantius II. I think is a Constantine I?
CONSTANI NVS MAX AUG, GLOR-IAEXERC-ITVS.

A little extra info on the legends rough translations:

CONSTANTINVS MAX (Maximus) AVG (Augustus) - 'Constantine the greatest Emperor'

GLORIA EXERCITVS - 'Glory of/to the army'

Your coin was also made in workshop No 1 (A) at Siscia, current day Sisak in Croatia.
