| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Emperor Vitellius facing right, with a draped paludamentum over the left shoulder, rendered in a robust, naturalistic style characteristic of the Year of the Four Emperors. The portrait displays the emperor's heavy, fleshy features with characteristic realism. The circumferential Latin legend reads A VITELLIVS GERMANICVS IMP AVG P M TR P, encircling the effigy along the full rim of the flan. |
