| Beschrijving keerzijde | A legionary aquila (eagle standard) stands prominently at center between two military signa (standards), each decorated with a series of phalerae (disc ornaments) and surmounted by a transverse crescent. The numerals X and XII appear in the lower field, flanking the base of the standards and referencing the Legio X Equestris and Legio XII Fulminata, both associated with the colony of Patras. The colonial legend COL A A PATR(AI) is distributed around the standards within a dotted border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Patras held the status of a Roman colony — Colonia Aroe Augusta Patrensis — granted by Augustus, which explains the COL A A PAT formula that distinguished its civic coinage from the Greek-style issues of neighboring Achaean cities. Galba's reign lasted barely seven months, from June 68 to January 69, making any issue struck in his name inherently short-lived. Provincial bronzes from his reign are relatively scarce simply because the mints had little time to produce them before Otho's troops moved against him.
