Follis (16-18 mm / 2,25 g), bronze, axes coin alignment ↑↓ (ca. 180°),
Obv.: CONSTANTINVS IVN NOB C , laureate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Constantinus II, facing left (RIC type B4 l. (p. 88)).
Rev.: PROVIDEN - TIA[E C]AESS / S TR (dot in crescent) , camp gate with two turrets, six layers, no doors, and one star above.
