| Obverse description | Schematized frontal royal bust of King Gundemar rendered in the debased late antique Visigothic style, with a highly stylized face featuring elongated features and a pronounced beaded diadem or crown visible above the head. The figure is shown with crossed scepters or torques beneath the chin, flanked by angular, abstracted decorative elements suggesting drapery or regalia. The surrounding field is occupied by the retrograde or irregular Latin legend. The overall design reflects the characteristic degeneration of Byzantine iconographic models as adopted by Visigothic moneyers. |
