| Obverse description | Laureate bust of Emperor Galba facing right, depicted with a draped and cuirassed shoulder, rendered in a robust late Republican portrait style characteristic of his brief reign. The effigy displays the emperor's well-known aged features — a broad, slightly wrinkled face with a prominent nose — consistent with authentic portraiture of Galba. The circular legend surrounds the bust in the field, inscribed in Latin capitals. The flan shows the typical irregular, somewhat uneven surface of a hammered bronze As of this period. |
