A lot of emperor descriptions begin with AVG and than the name; usually continues at the right side of the head

Not much detail to go on but my best guess is Constantius II.

I can read the name CONSTANTIVS - so it is Constantius II. The reverse is a votive wreath - a promise to the people. It reads VOT XX MVLT XXX. Some cleaning would reveal the mint mark
