Description: This is an opportunity to own a rare piece of history minted between 68-69 AD. There are only six specimens of this coin noted in RPC. This is a genuine Galba coin, struck in bronze, and guaranteed authentic. Coins of Galba are hard pieces to find as he only ruled for seven months. This would be a rare coin by any standards. This is a coin that has been widely sought after by collectors for years. It is a chance to own one that is guaranteed authentic. Grading of coins is subjective. I would give this coin a grade of F/CH F as the portrait is strong, you can see abs on the reverse and the legend is legible. Even more detail may stand out with a little more patina removal.
