| Obverse description | Facing bust of King Suinthila rendered in the highly schematic, flat style characteristic of late Visigothic coinage, with a broad, stylised face, pellet eyes, and flanking hair rendered as beaded strands. Below the bust appears a stylised letter M or omega-like device, a conventional Visigothic mint or royal symbol. The surrounding circular legend reads + SVINTHILA RE, separated by cross pattée at the top, all contained within a beaded border. |
