The Suevic coin is a silver siliqua minted in Braga in 448-456, under Rechiarius (AHMP, CMP 1814-2). It shows a tall standing cross encircled by a crown of laurel, with the letters B-R and, below, a palm, with the words IVSSV RICHIARI REGES (‘By order of Rechiarius, king’), and a bust of Honorius, facing right, with the words D N HONORIVS P F AVG (‘Our lord Honorius, pious, felicitous, august’). For the first time in history, a barbarian Christian king, striving for legitimacy, ordered a coin to be minted in his own name.
