| Obverse description | Stylized facing bust of King Wamba in the center of the field, rendered in the schematic Visigothic manner with angular facial features and a prominent diadem or crown indicated above. The bust is surrounded by a circular beaded border. The Latin legend reads + I N D · I N · M VVAMBA P, distributed around the periphery, with a small cross pattée visible at the top of the legend. Star-shaped ornaments punctuate the lower field flanking the bust, a characteristic decorative device of late Visigothic coinage. |

| Reverse description | Central field occupied by a prominent cross pattée, boldly rendered in the Visigothic hammered style, serving as the primary device. Below the cross, a smaller secondary motif is visible, consistent with typical Visigothic reverse arrangements. The encircling Latin legend + CORDOBA PATRICIA identifies the mint as Córdoba, denoted with the honorific title 'Patricia,' and runs between an inner and outer beaded border. Star-shaped ornaments are interspersed in the lower field, mirroring the decorative vocabulary of the obverse. |
