Reverse description The Jamaican countermark applied to the reverse of the host coin, consisting of a large numeral '4' surmounted by a crown, with the letter 'V' to the left, all struck within a circular incuse punch. This countermark, applied by Jamaican colonial authorities, certifies the coin's revalued denomination of 4 maravedis for local circulation. The surrounding field retains traces of the original host coin's design, including fragmentary border elements, though heavily worn and obscured by the crude flan.
