| Obverse description | Stylized bust of King Recceswinth facing right, depicted in a highly schematic late antique manner characteristic of Visigothic coinage. The effigy shows the ruler wearing a diadem or helmet, with a draped bust rendered in low relief. The figure displays the debased artistic conventions typical of seventh-century Iberian tremisses, with summary facial features. A circular Latin legend surrounds the bust within a beaded border. |
