| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned Royal Arms of Spain occupy the central field, depicting the quartered shield with castles and lions, surmounted by a royal crown. The Pillars of Hercules flank the shield on either side, representing the Strait of Gibraltar and the motto of the Spanish monarchy. The mint mark PTS (Potosí) and assayer initials appear in the legend, along with the denomination indicator R. The circular legend HISPAN·ET IND·R·PTS·P·J· surrounds the central device, all within a reeded border. The overall composition follows the standardized design introduced for Ferdinand VII's colonial coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Potosí's output during this period was anything but stable. The mint changed hands repeatedly between royalist and patriot forces during the independence wars — falling to the Army of the North in 1810, retaken by royalists in 1811, and oscillating through several more sieges before Sucre's final victory in 1825. Coins struck in Fernando VII's name continued rolling out of the Casa de Moneda regardless of who physically controlled the building, making the issuing authority on any given piece a matter of which army held the courtyard that month.
