Tremissis - Sisebuto Tarraco

Sisebut is one of the more unusual Visigothic rulers — literate enough to compose a Latin hagiographic poem on Saint Desiderius and conduct correspondence with Lombard and Byzantine courts. His reign saw the forced conversion of Iberian Jews in 616, a policy remarkable enough that Isidore of Seville criticized it as theologically premature. Tarraco, the former Roman provincial capital of Hispania Tarraconensis, retained enough administrative weight under Visigothic rule to operate its own mint, though output was modest.

Pliego 255 places this among the attributed Tarraco emissions distinguished from the Toledo and Ispali series by subtle die characteristics.
