flyank Valued Member United States 77 Posts	Posted 11/22/2016 5:14 pm I must first apologize for these photos which are very poor at best. I do NOT collect ancient coins but I have been asked by a friend if I can attribute this. I tried looking for these coins but they appear to be varying by the hundreds of types for this ruler/period. One thing that appears different is the tassels behind the head, curling up and down. Any help is appreciated. Value? Report this Post to the Staff

Biancasdad Pillar of the Community United States 1045 Posts	Posted 11/22/2016 6:49 pm Agree, definitely Constans. The reverse is the GLORIA EXCERCITVS type with one standard between two soldiers. I can't make out the mint mark. Off to the eye doctor now, I think I just went blind Edited by Biancasdad 11/22/2016 6:51 pm Report this Post to the Staff
