Galba seized power in June 68 AD after Nero's suicide ended the Julio-Claudian line, but his reign lasted barely seven months before the Praetorian Guard murdered him in the Roman Forum. The ROMA RENASCENS type — "Rome reborn" — was a deliberate propaganda claim issued by a man trying to legitimize a regime that had no dynastic footing whatsoever. It didn't work. His legendary stinginess with donatives to the soldiers who had just made him emperor made his assassination almost inevitable.
RIC I #25 is among the types struck at the Spanish mint, almost certainly Tarraco, before Galba even reached Rome.
