Obverse description Bare-necked, laureate head of Emperor Vitellius facing right, rendered in high relief with strong portraiture typical of the Julio-Claudian tradition. The emperor's fleshy features are depicted with naturalistic detail, including a prominent jaw and thick neck. A laurel wreath crowns the head, its ties visible behind the neck. The encircling Latin legend runs from the lower left, framing the portrait against a smooth, slightly worn field.
