She extends her right hand forward, offering a patera over a flaming altar set to the left, while her left hand holds a long sceptre or hasta. The composition conveys the propagandistic message of Galba's reign as a salvation for Rome. The legend SALVS GEN HVMANI arcs around the upper and right field. |
