| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Libertas stands facing left in a graceful contrapposto pose, draped in a flowing stola and palla rendered in fine relief. She extends her right hand forward, holding a pileus (the freedman's cap symbolizing liberty), while her left hand holds a long vindicta (rod). The legend LIBERTAS PVBLICA appears in the field divided to left and right, with the senatorial authorization mark S C (Senatus Consultum) prominently displayed in the lower field to either side of the figure, all within a beaded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Galba's reign lasted just seven months, from June 68 to January 69 AD, ending when the Praetorian Guard murdered him in the Roman Forum and kicked his severed head through the streets. The LIBERTAS PVBLICA legend on his bronzes was deliberate political messaging — Galba positioned himself as the liberator from Neronian tyranny, a claim the Senate enthusiastically endorsed but the legions never bought.
Production ran across both Rome and uncertain Spanish mints, and attribution of individual pieces remains contested among specialists. RIC I 423 places this among the Rome issues.
