| Obverse description | Laureate head of the emperor Galba facing right, rendered in a provincial style with broad facial features and a wreath of laurel leaves encircling the head. The legend runs along the periphery in Latin capitals, partially visible due to the irregular flan and surface wear. The portrait conveys the mature, aged likeness characteristic of Galba's official coinage, with drapery suggested at the truncation of the bust. |
