Tremissis - Wittiza Gerunda

正面描述	Facing bust of King Wittiza depicted in a highly stylized, schematic manner characteristic of late Visigothic coinage, positioned at the center of the field. The effigy is rendered frontally with pelleted or beaded detailing around the head, flanked by cross-tipped ornaments or regalia on either side. The surrounding circular legend reads + I D · N · VVITTIZA RX, identifying the king by name and title. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded or serrated inner border. The execution reflects the degenerate late antique style typical of Visigothic tremisses of the early eighth century.

附加信息	Wittiza's reign (700–710) marked the final decade of coherent Visigothic royal authority before the Umayyad invasion of 711 effectively ended the kingdom. Gerunda — modern Girona — was an active mint under the late Visigoths, and tremisses struck there tend to show more consistent gold fineness than those from some southern mints during the same period, likely reflecting proximity to Pyrenean trade routes rather than royal favoritism. Pliego 764 is among the rarer Gerunda attributions for Wittiza, with documented examples in single digits across major collections.
