| Beschrijving voorzijde | Emperor Galba depicted in military dress as an equestrian figure, galloping to the right, his right arm extended and levelling a javelin in a commanding martial pose. The horse is shown in dynamic motion with forelegs raised. The surrounding field is largely plain, consistent with the hasty, high-relief hammered style of Galban coinage. The abbreviated Latin legend SERV GALBA IMP encircles the type, identifying the emperor as Servius Galba Imperator. The flan is irregular and slightly spread, typical of the short-lived Galban mint output of AD 68–69. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The personification of Roma is depicted helmeted and in military dress, striding vigorously to the right in a dynamic composition. In her extended right hand she holds a small Victory standing on a globe, while her left hand grasps an eagle-tipped sceptre, together symbolising Roman martial supremacy and divine favour. The figure is rendered with confident, if somewhat summary, die-cutting characteristic of the civil war period coinage. The legend ROMA RENASCENS is disposed around the field, proclaiming the ideological message of Rome's rebirth under Galba's rule. The type served as potent propaganda legitimising Galba's accession following the fall of Nero. |
