| Obverse description | Facing bust of King Suinthila rendered in the schematic, highly stylised manner characteristic of late Visigothic coinage, with a beaded or diademed head displaying pronounced facial features and a striated neck. The bust is shown draped, with a globus cruciger or sceptre-like object visible at the shoulder, consistent with royal Visigothic iconographic convention. The surrounding circular legend reads X SVINTHILA REX, distributed around the field in the retrograde or irregular letter arrangement typical of the Caesaraugusta mint. A beaded inner border frames the design, with a serrated or toothed outer rim visible at the coin's periphery. |
