I ended up not bidding on this lot because I just couldn't be sure, but does the coin in the lower right look like it might be an obverse anepigraphic (no legend) AE-3 of Constantine I or one of his sons with a left-facing bust?

The reverse of the coin appears to be upside-down in the auction photo.

The reverse looks to have a wreath on it and not a star.

Here's a left-facing Constantine II from VCoins with a star on the reverse for comparison.

It's possible, but I can't say because of the lack of a detailed picture.

It was, yeah. Which is a pity, because I've been looking out for one of these for ages and it looks like it could have cleaned up nicely. Not heard of onefound in England either.
