<p>[QUOTE=&quot;dougsmit, post: 8214002, member: 19463&quot;]There is a trick for distinguishing Constans and Constantius II.&nbsp; Both used a legend that started DN and ended PF AVG so you ignore those sections.&nbsp; Also ignore word spacing since both split the name in the middle.&nbsp; Both names started CONSTA so your job is to decide if you have NS for Constans or NTIVS for Constantius.&nbsp; You don&#039;t need to read a single letter here - just count the bumps.&nbsp; If there are too many bumps to just be NS, you must have a Constantius. The presence of the Phoenix eliminates the other rulers who did not use that type.&nbsp; Mine below is Constantius II, Nicomedia, RIC 73B page 476. I do not have the Cyzicus version but that is what I believe yours is. If Constantius, it would be RIC 89 page 496; If Constans, RIC 90.&nbsp; That leaves you to count the bumps.</p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]1441571[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
