Hi Britanikus

It is helpful to use acsearch.info / coinarchives.com to see how many specimens there are records for (for the periods the archives cover).

Hello, as far as rarity rating for coins of Constantine and his Family, in general, beware. A flood of Late Roman bronze coins have entered the marketplace and numerous large hoards have been uncovered and sold off.
In my opinion most ratings are well overstated if we judge them by the Rome mint expert, Lars Ramskold,

Lars Ramskold studies Roman History, Ancient Roman Numismatics, and Constantinople. Work is in progress to shift the bias of the publication list from other areas to late Roman history, with emphasis on numismatics
Here is a link to his research on that subject

Again, take the "rarity" with caution.
