Hello!

I have tried to find this one on my own for about 2 days and can't seem to do so. I don't see any coin similar on Wildwinds with the bust facing left and a person on the back with wings. I believe that it says "Constan" on the obverse which should narrow it down and then on the right hand side of the obverse it what I can make out is the end of the word "opoli" which may be or might not be what it says. Unfortunately I can't seem to find it. On the reverse I think the letters on the bottom are SMN and possibly a letter after the N. Let me know what you think. Thanks!
