| Obverse description | Stylized facing bust of King Sisebut in the central field, rendered in the debased Late Antique manner characteristic of Visigothic coinage, with a prominent arched diadem or crown indicated above the head. The bust is shown frontally, with schematic facial features and a simplified drapery or collar indicated below. A cross appears at the top of the legend. The surrounding circular legend reads + SISEBVTVS RE, rendered in bold, angular Latin capitals, separated from the central device by a beaded inner border. The overall engraving style is vigorous but stylized, consistent with early seventh-century Iberian hammered gold coinage. |
