Nice GLORIA EXERCITIS

[Bamba123]

Ok, came across a coin in my "coins that need attention pile"  I mostly want verification I got it right and a question of grading a coin.  want to get to the point where I can help instead of asking endless favors.
I used a reference book on Constantine.  The coin:
Constantinius II
Obv. FL IVL CONSTANTIVS NOB C
B4 Bust, Laureate, Draped and Cuirassed
Rev. GLOR-IA EXERC-ITIS
Two soldiers standing, between them two standards

Exergue *SMKA (Cyzicus) 335-336
RIC VII, 113

Also, how would you grade this coin.  The scans are not as good as in hand, but represent it well.  I would (with massive amounts of inexperience) grade it VF to VF+
Would appreciate feedback on this.  As usual, thank you.  Jim

Hi Bamba!

You are right with your attribution, it is RIC VII, Cyzikus 113. Your coin is clearly from the 1st officina A and that officina is not yet listed in RIC! Only Gamma, Delta and S are known, but A was to be expected. All are very rare, so congrats!

The obv. is in a better state than the rev., so I would it rate VF/about VF.

Best regars

Jochen, thanks the additional info is appreciated.  I haven't been doing this all that long and when I find a really nice piece of history whether rare or common it is a rush.  I am becoming addicted to this hobby, thanks for the opinion on grading that is still something I need to work on to become more accurate.  Again thanks Jim
