Obverse description Central crowned monogram of Luis I (LVDOVICVS) in the field, flanked by the assayer mark 'D' and mint mark 'Mo' (Mexico City). The date 1724 appears divided within the surrounding circular legend. The royal cypher is surmounted by a detailed crown, with two small shields or pellets flanking the base of the monogram. The peripheral legend reads in Latin invoking the king's title by divine right.
