| Reverse description | Facing royal bust occupying the central field, rendered in the same schematic Visigothic style as the obverse, with a helmeted and diademed head surmounted by a cross, draped bust below, and a globus or orb held before the chest. The surrounding legend, distributed in segments across the field, records the mint signature of Caesaraugusta (Zaragoza) in abbreviated form. The execution is characteristic of the degraded Byzantine prototype adapted by Visigothic celators of the late sixth century. |
