Reverse description The reverse presents an equally stylized central motif, likely a schematic cross or abstract royal symbol, surrounded by a decorative border of pellets and star-like elements consistent with the obverse design. The field is densely filled with raised ornamental elements characteristic of late Visigothic tremisses struck at the mint of Elvora. The peripheral Latin legend + VVITTIZA P + RECES records the name and title of the co-ruler Wittiza, designating him as rex. The coin's irregular flan and worn surfaces attest to its hammered production and active circulation during the final years of the Visigothic monarchy.
