| Obverse description | Facing bust of King Suinthila in the Visigothic style, depicted frontally within a beaded or dotted inner circle, with stylized drapery and elongated neck rendered in the degenerate late-antique manner characteristic of Visigothic coinage. The king's hair falls to the shoulders, and the facial features are rendered schematically with large eyes and a prominent nose. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central effigy reading +SVINTHILA RE, separated from the bust by a beaded border. The flan is irregular, and the overall die work is bold but crudely executed in the hammered tradition. |
