Tremissis - Sisebuto Tarraco

Sisebut is one of the more intellectually remarkable Visigothic kings — he wrote hagiographic poetry and corresponded with Isidore of Seville — but his reign is also notable for the forced conversion of the Iberian Jewish population, a royal decree that outpaced even Church policy and was later criticized by the Fourth Council of Toledo. Tarraco, the mint here, was the old Roman provincial capital of Hispania Tarraconensis, still functioning as an administrative center under Visigothic rule despite its greatly reduced importance.

Tremisses of this reign are cross-referenced against Pliego's corpus, which substantially revised earlier CNV attributions for several Sisebut mint assignments.
