| Obverse description | Stylized royal bust facing right in the late Visigothic manner, rendered in a schematic and highly conventionalized style characteristic of the period. The effigy is adorned with a laurel wreath or diadem atop the head, with details reduced to abstract relief elements. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, separated from the bust by a beaded inner border. The overall treatment reflects the progressive debasement of classical portraiture typical of late Visigothic coinage. |
