Aanvullende informatie

Felipe V died in July 1746, meaning coins dated 1747 under his name were struck posthumously — a routine occurrence when news of a monarch's death reached Mexico City weeks after the fact, and dies already in use simply continued running. The overlap between his reign and that of Fernando VI created brief periods where both names appeared on circulating silver simultaneously.

These cob-style half reales from Mexico City are notorious for off-center strikes and irregular flans, a product of the macuquina process still in use at the mint before milled coinage fully displaced it.
