From the Art Institute of Chicago record

On the front (obverse) of this coin, the emperor Galerius Maximianus is shown facing right and wearing a crown of laurels. On the back (reverse), the standing figure of a genius holds a cornucopia in one hand while the other pours liquid from a type of shallow dish called a patera.
