| 表面の説明 | Pearl-diademed, draped, and cuirassed bust of Valentinian III facing right, rendered in the late antique imperial style characteristic of Visigothic imitative coinage. The effigy displays a prominent pearl diadem crowning the emperor's head, with elaborately rendered hair falling in tight curls at the nape. The paludamentum is fastened at the right shoulder with a circular fibula, and the cuirass with pteryges is visible below. The circumferential Latin legend reads D N PLA VALENTI-NIANVS P F AVG, separated by the bust, with letters of slightly irregular execution reflecting the Visigothic workshop's imitative hand. |

The Visigoths struck imitative solidi in the name of Roman emperors as a deliberate political act — projecting legitimacy by borrowing imperial authority they did not formally hold. Issues in the name of Valentinian III date to the period when Visigothic power in southwestern Gaul was consolidating under Theoderic I, who had settled his people in Aquitaine under the treaty of 418. Roman coinage types were copied closely enough to circulate alongside genuine imperial issues, which complicates attribution to this day.
RIC X 3711 is distinguished from its genuine counterparts primarily by subtle die work inconsistencies accumulated through the copying process.
