| Obverse description | Laureate head of Emperor Galba facing right, with a small globe at the base of the neck truncation, a characteristic portrait convention of his coinage. The emperor is depicted with his distinctive aged and somewhat stern physiognomy, rendered in high relief. The circumferential Latin legend runs around the portrait within a plain border. The overall style reflects the workshops active at Rome during the transitional Year of the Four Emperors. |
