Reverse description Facing bust on the reverse, similarly rendered in the schematic Visigothic style, enclosed within a beaded inner circle, representing either a second royal portrait or a stylized ecclesiastical figure consistent with Visigothic tremissis typology. Below the bust, crossed sceptres or torques are suggested by schematic linear devices, reflecting the late degeneration of Byzantine prototype designs. The surrounding circular Latin legend reads +ISPALI PIVS, identifying the mint city of Hispalis (modern Seville) and the royal epithet PIVS. The reverse design mirrors the obverse in artistic treatment, with a dentilated or beaded border at the coin's edge.
