I already posted this coin in another topic, but I took new pictures.

RIC only lists the short obverse legend for Constans (CONSTANS P F AVG) for R dot P, while this example has the longer legend (DN FL CONSTANS AVG). It should come after RIC VIII Rome 81. This example also has both victories holding wreaths to left, instead of facing each other.

DN FL CONSTANS AVG; Rosette-diademed, draped and cuirassed bust right.
