It's funny how it seems so easy when you're the one posting the unknown.

It's neither Constans, Crispus, nor Constantius. Obviously though, you are all in the right ballpark.

Not Maximus.

Boy will I be embarrassed if I misattributed this coin, but I'm 99.9% sure of the attribution.

This is the son of an earlier emperor.
