| Reverse description | Facing bust of similar schematic design to the obverse, likely representing a Victory or an idealized royal effigy, rendered in the same angular, abbreviated Visigothic style with pendilia and draped bust. The surrounding circular Latin legend, broken by pellets and colons as word separators, reads CE: AR: C: O: TAIV: T, representing the abbreviated mint name Caesaraugusta (modern Zaragoza) in the characteristic contracted form used on Visigothic tremisses. Pellets are distributed throughout the field as decorative or separating elements. The overall execution reflects the reduction in engraving skill typical of post-Roman Hispanic monetary production of the late sixth century. |
