Reverse description Quartered shield bearing the castles and lions of the Spanish royal arms, struck in a rough and primitive style consistent with emergency wartime coinage. The shield occupies the central field and is surrounded by the circular legend reading 'PROV D OAXACA 1812', denoting the Provisional government of Oaxaca and the year of issue. A beaded border encircles the design. The overall execution reflects the limited minting resources available to the Royalist provisional authorities during the insurgency period.
