Obverse description Royal crowned monogram of Philip IV, composed of interlaced letters 'R' and 'S' beneath a royal crown, occupying the central field. The mint mark appears below the monogram. The surrounding legend reads PHILIPP·IIII·DG, denoting the king's name and his title by the grace of God. The milled edge is visible around the coin's circumference, characteristic of the roller-milled coinage produced at the Segovia mint.

Reverse description A plain cross with equal arms divides the field into four quadrants, each containing alternating castles and lions representing the kingdoms of Castile and León. The date appears in the upper portion of the legend, with the full circumscribed legend HISPANIARVM·REX running around the periphery, identifying the ruler as King of the Spains. The design is neatly struck and well-centered, typical of the roller-milled macuquina coinage of the Segovia mint under Philip IV.
