    Just a decent larger Siscia falling horseman of Constantius II. These larger ones seem as hard to find as Constans from the same mint.

    Very nice. I am still on the lookout for a a nice big one like this. Mine are all later, smaller examples.

    Very nice FTR type, portrait is good and the reverse detail is superb. Nice catch!

    Thanks! I still would like to get one with a start in the right field; either Constans or Constantius.
