| Obverse description | Facing bust of King Suintila rendered in the schematic Visigothic style, depicted with a diademed and pearl-ornamented head, with pendilia flanking the face, and a draped bust below. The king is shown frontally with stylized facial features characteristic of late Visigothic gold coinage. Surrounding the central effigy is the circular Latin legend +SVINTILA RE, with individual letters separated by star-shaped or pellet ornaments. The border is composed of a beaded circle within a toothed rim. |

| Reverse description | Facing bust in the same schematic Visigothic style as the obverse, depicting a stylized royal or ecclesiastical effigy with a crowned or diademed head, pendilia, and a draped bust. The treatment is highly abstract, typical of the Laetera (Lérida) mint output under Suintila. The surrounding circular Latin legend reads +LAETERA PIVS, with letters interspersed by ornamental star or pellet devices. The border mirrors the obverse with a beaded inner circle and a toothed outer rim. |
