| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by two facing busts of the co-rulers Egica and Wittiza, rendered in the schematic, stylised manner characteristic of late Visigothic coinage, separated by a long cross on steps rising between them. Each bust displays a rayed or radiate crown convention reduced to decorative pellet-and-arc motifs. A small cross pattée appears above the paired busts in the upper field. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a serrated outer border following the irregular flan edge. The Latin legend naming the kings runs around the periphery in debased, retrograde-influenced lettering. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Egica elevated his son Wittiza to co-rulership around 694, making this a joint-reign issue — a Visigothic practice used to secure succession while the senior king still lived. Ispali (Seville) was one of the more active Visigothic mints, and tremisses from this reign survive in small but not negligible numbers. The co-reign ended with Egica's death around 702, after which Wittiza ruled alone for roughly a decade before the Arab invasion of 711 effectively ended Visigothic coinage altogether.
