| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Vitellius facing right, with short hair rendered in fine strands beneath the laurel wreath. The portrait is rendered in the provincial Alexandrian style, with the legend partially encircling the bust reading ΩΛΟΥ ΟΥΙΤ ΚΑΙΣ ΣΕΒ ΓΕΡΜ ΑΥΤ (abbreviating Aulus Vitellius Caesar Sebastos Germanikos Autokrator). The portrait displays the characteristic heavy-jowled physiognomy associated with Vitellius in Roman portraiture. |
