| Reverse description | Standing figure of Roma, helmeted and draped, depicted facing right in a striding pose, extending her right hand toward a winged Victory who approaches from the right bearing a wreath. Roma holds a spear or sceptre in her left hand, and the composition conveys a dynamic scene of divine sanction and renewal. The legend ROMA RENASCENS arcs across the upper field, proclaiming the symbolic rebirth of Rome under Galba's reign. The design is bold and propagandistic, typical of the brief but numismatically prolific coinage of the Year of the Four Emperors. |
