I wonder if this isn't a 12 Nummi of Constans II (Sear BCV #1027).

@Spence Yes, it's similar. But the size and weigth is more a nummus och 2 nummi. And the cross looks like it's upside down. Confusing?

Really good point about the cross potent seemingly being upside down. I saw that and dismissed it as sloppy engraving. Maybe you have a contemporary counterfeit? I'm not sure but hopefully someone more knowledgeable than I am will weigh in.
