A new Constantius II just arrived today to replace the horrible example I previously had in my Imperial collection. I really like this one.

Bronze Follis AE2, A.D. 350-355, Antioch, 24.2mm, 5.83g, 165°, RIC VIII 132.
Obv: D N CONSTANTIVS P F AVG. Pearl-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right.
Rev: FEL TEMP REPARATIO. Soldier spearing fallen horseman; ANZ in ex.
New-Constantius-II!

Great details--and the reverse, especially the soldier, was very well done!

That really is a nice coin, great details. You couldn't ask for a better coin. The surface patina does look a little bit rough in that photo and in certain areas, but it is still a very nice coin.
