| Additional information |
Sisebut is one of the more documented Visigothic kings, known as much for his literary output — including a Latin poem on lunar eclipses — as for his forced conversion of the Jewish population of Hispania around 616, a policy that even Pope Gregory's successor found excessive. His coinage was struck across a wide range of mints, and Panonias — identified with Panóias in northern Portugal — represents one of the more peripheral production centers of his reign.
The Pliego corpus has been instrumental in separating genuine Panonias issues from later imitations, with CNV#245 placing this type within a well-defined regional series.
