| Aversbeschreibung | Facing bust of King Witerico depicted in a highly stylized, pseudo-imperial manner, wearing a diadem surmounted by a cross and draped in a jewelled garment rendered with horizontal striations. The facial features are schematically rendered in the late antique Visigothic tradition, with large almond-shaped eyes and a prominent nose. The bust is set within the field, surrounded by a circular Latin legend reading + VVITTERICVS RE, separated from the border by a ring of pellets and stylized foliate or star-shaped ornaments characteristic of Visigothic tremissis coinage. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Witerico seized the Visigothic throne in 603 by murdering Liuva II, and his coins reflect the instability of that usurpation — mint output was scattered across Iberian centers as the new king worked to consolidate authority. Senabria, modern Sanabria in northwestern Zamora province, sits on what was then a contested frontier zone between Visigothic control and the residual pressures from the Suevic northwest, making its mint activity under Witerico politically charged rather than merely administrative.
Witerico was himself assassinated in 610, stabbed at a banquet. His reign produced no dynastic succession.
