| Beschrijving keerzijde | Victory personified, draped, standing facing on a globe, head turned to the left. She extends her right hand forward holding a wreath and grasps a long palm branch in her left hand, a symbol of triumph. The globe beneath her feet symbolizes Roman dominion over the world. The reverse legend appears in the field, and the composition reflects the standard Julio-Claudian iconography of Victoria used to legitimize the new emperor's reign. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Galba's reign lasted just seven months, from June 68 to January 69 AD, making his coinage among the scarcest of the Julio-Claudian and early Flavian transition period. The VICTORIA P R legend — Victory of the Roman People — was politically charged propaganda for a man whose claim to power rested entirely on the legions of Spain turning against Nero, not on any battlefield triumph.
He was murdered by the Praetorian Guard on the Ides of January, 69, in the Forum.
