| Obverse description | Bare-headed, laureate and draped bust of Emperor Galba facing right, rendered in a realistic, somewhat aged portrait style characteristic of late Julio-Claudian and early Flavian die-cutting. The emperor's features are pronounced, with a strong jaw and heavy neck, consistent with his known portraiture. The circular legend runs along the outer border of the coin field, partially visible around the effigy. |
