This is another late Roman coin. Unfortunately, this one's tougher to identify. The "PF AVG" identifies it as a "senior emperor", but all that's left of the emperor's name on the obverse is the final letter "S" - and virtually everyone's Latin name ended in "S"! It could be one on the Constantines, or a family member (like Constans).

The reverse legend starts "SECVRITAS", most likely a SECVRITAS REIPVBLICAE" type. The design is another victory/angel; this time he's walking left holding a wreath. Emperor Valentinian I (364-375 AD, Sear #4003) was one emperor who issued coins of this type.
Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis
