Also after looking through the forum I'm wondering why this coin looks so copper colored ? Could it be a fake ?

Constantine the Great, GLORIA EXERCITVS, soldiers with two standards. Too common to fake; it was just cleaned with acid.

Too bad it has been very harshly cleaned.

Im trying to narrow it further from the "Gloria Exercitvs" using the Tesorillo site. would it be a Constantinvs II Ivnior?
AE3 But not sure on the NIK,HER or SIS ? Has the coin been ruined by the acid cleaning and thus has no value ?

No, it's Constantine I (the great), if you look at the legend on the right you will see the letters MAX AVG. That was only used on Constantine I coins.
