    I'm leaning towards Cyzicus. Am I correct or? I know it has a camp gate.

    Cyzicus is the mint. I think this gives everything.

    I believe it is Constantius II. While I can'y make out the start of the legend, you can clearly see CONSTANTIVSNOBC and a count of the letters confirms it is one short to be CONSTNATINVSNOBC.

    Could be. Constantius II has one just like it with the same mint mark.

    otlichnik is correct. It's Constantius II, as Caesar.
