there is disagreement over whether these are Visigothic


Can not make a comment on your top two coins but my first impression of the two coins from Seville was that they looked like crude imitations of Byzantine coins, which could make sense since the area was for quite some time (intermittently)under the control of the Byzantines.

I forgot, it is (link) in spanish... they have doubts and (as Medieval) said this coins may be bizantines or issued by local ruler under bizantine or visigotic control (Crusafont opinion is that they are visigotics)

Veton!

A really useful link, thanks for posting it. I'm fluent in Spanish so I'll have no problem reading it, aside from maybe some of the technical terms.

My thoughts on my coins are that they are most likely just local city issues, that the Visigothic government didn't have a hand in making them but rather Visigothic officials in the cities commissioned the making of these.
