Beschrijving keerzijde Facing bust in the same schematic Visigothic style as the obverse, representing a stylized effigy with beaded or radiate crown and draped shoulders rendered in a flat, linear manner. The bust is centrally placed on the irregular flan, with the facial features depicted in a highly conventionalized fashion derived from debased Byzantine prototypes. The mint name RODΛS (Rosas, in modern Catalonia) and the epithet IVSTVS appear distributed around the bust as the reverse legend. The granulated or serrated border typical of Visigothic tremisses frames the design.

Aanvullende informatie

Recaredo I's conversion from Arianism to Nicene Christianity in 589 — announced at the Third Council of Toledo — was among the most consequential religious-political decisions in early medieval Iberia, consolidating Visigothic authority with the Catholic hierarchy that dominated the population. Coinage struck in his name at Rodas, a mint of disputed location almost certainly in the northeastern peninsula, belongs to the transitional moment when Visigothic royal legitimacy was being actively recast.

The Rodas mint is among the less productive of the Visigothic series, and pieces attributable to CNV 124 appear infrequently at auction.
