Obverse description Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Vitellius facing right, rendered in the portraiture style typical of the Year of the Four Emperors. The effigy displays the emperor's characteristic heavy features with a thick neck, consistent with ancient literary descriptions. A laurel wreath crowns the head, symbolizing imperial authority. The surrounding legend runs clockwise around the periphery of the flan within a dotted border.
