Believed to be Roman. An inexpensive foray into this category. Tried Google Images, but not much luck. Thanks.

Yes, it is Roman. It is Constantius II with a legend of CONSTANTIVS P F AVG. The reverse is a GLORIA EXERCITVS with a soldier on either side of a banner. It is from Arles and the mintmark is either PARL or SARL. It looks like a G on the banner, though it is not clear; which would make it RIC VIII Arles 56. Other choices for the letter on the banner are M or I; but I seem to make out a faint G.
