Hello my friends, can anyone help me. I know the coin is not in good condition. I believe the reverse is GLORIA ROMANORVM. Bust looked like valentian or gratian

How big is it? It looks like FEL TEMP REPARATIO with the emperor on a galley. Constans or Constantius II http://numismatics.org/ocre/results...ltext:galley

I agree likely Constans or Constantius II, but my impression is that the reverse depicts a Roman with a captive (and maybe another one to the right).

I think that's Victory on the right, steering the ship. The emperor in the middle is holding a banner - the square bit at the top would have Chi Rho on it. On the left would be phoenix on a globe.

Yes, it is a GLORIA ROMANORVM. I can't tell if it is Valentinian I, Valens or Gratian though.

Why did you exclude Theodosius I, Valentinian II and Arkadius?

Fair enough. So there is no-one to the right
It looks a big gap, so maybe there is a symbol or letter.
