    Indeed it is Constans. Can you make out the mintmark on the reverse? is it SMKΓ?

    I don't know. It doesn't look like a K to me. But I'm not sure.

    I think it is a K, making this:

    Constans
    AE3
    Cyzicus mint, 346-348 AD
    DN CONSTANS PF AVG
    laureate bust r.
    GLOR-IA EXERC-ITVS
    two soldiers standing with one standard
    SMKΓ in exergue
    RIC VIII Cyzicus 18
