| Reverse description | Facing bust in stylized Visigothic style, rendered frontally with schematic facial features typical of mid-seventh century Iberian coinage, surrounded by crosses and star-like decorative elements arranged in the field. A beaded border encircles the central design, with the mint and royal epithet legend EMERITA PIVS distributed around the periphery in Latin capitals, attributing the issue to the mint of Emerita (modern Mérida) and describing the king as pius (pious). The reverse maintains the characteristic flat, abstract artistic treatment of Visigothic tremisses of this period. |
