| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Emperor Galba facing right, rendered in bold relief with characteristic aged physiognomy. The emperor's portrait displays a heavy jowl and prominent features consistent with his numismatic iconography. Long flowing hair is visible beneath the laurel wreath, with drapery over the left shoulder. The encircling legend reads SER GALBA IMP CAES AVG TR P in Latin capitals, distributed around the field. The portrait style reflects the late Julio-Claudian transitional aesthetic of the short-lived Flavian period. |
