| Obverse description | Facing bust of King Sisebut in the Visigothic style, rendered in a highly stylized and schematic manner characteristic of late antique Iberian coinage. The effigy displays a frontal face with exaggerated features, flanked by letters of the royal legend arranged around the central figure. The overall composition is dense and compressed within the small flan, with letter forms distributed across the field in the typical Visigothic tremissis layout. The relief is bold but irregular, reflecting hand-hammered production techniques. |
