| Reverse description | Facing bust of the mint city personification or a royal effigy in the same schematic Visigothic style as the obverse, rendered frontally with stylized facial features and a decorated collar. A cross pattée is prominently placed above the bust in the upper field, consistent with the Visigothic ecclesiastical numismatic tradition. The bust is flanked by the dispersed letters of the mint name and royal epithet. The surrounding circular legend reads + PIVS ΛSIDONΛ in debased Latin capitals, identifying the mint as Asidona (modern Medina Sidonia). The field retains the characteristic irregular fabric of hammered Visigothic gold coinage. |
