| Reverse description | Facing bust of a secondary figure, likely a stylized royal or divine effigy, rendered in a schematic frontal style consistent with the obverse, with a cross above the head and dotted pellets flanking the face. The drapery is depicted with horizontal ribbing. The surrounding Latin legend reads + CORDOBA PIVS, identifying the mint city of Cordoba and the epithet PIVS (the Pious), a royal title adopted by Recaredo I following his conversion to Catholicism. The flan edge is irregular with a beaded border, typical of the Visigothic hammered gold coinage of the late sixth century. |
