On the obverse (the side with the head).  I can make out "ANTI" on the left and then "NVS" so it must be "CONSTANTINVS"

Probably CONSTANTINVS MAX AVG on the obverse with GLORIA EXERCITVS on the reverse

similar to this one in the gallery:

Constantine I for sure. Not fully atributable as you can't read the mintmark (off flan)
