| Obverse description | Radiate, draped, and cuirassed bust of Galerius facing right, rendered in the military portrait style typical of the Tetrarchic period. The emperor is depicted wearing a radiate crown with pronounced spikes, a paludamentum secured at the shoulder, and elaborately detailed scale or segmented armour. The effigy is executed in the broad, stocky Tetrarchic artistic convention, emphasizing authority and martial strength over naturalistic portraiture. The encircling Latin legend reads GAL VAL MAXIMIANVS NOB CAES, identifying Galerius in his capacity as Caesar under Diocletian's reformed imperial college. |
