| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a quartered shield bearing the castles of Castile and the lions of León, arranged in the standard Spanish royal arms pattern, struck crudely on an irregular planchet. A cross with flared or plain terminals divides the shield into four quarters, consistent with the macuquina style of the Potosí Mint. The mint mark 'P' and the assayer's initial are visible in the quarters of the cross, along with a partial date. The surrounding Latin legend, referencing Potosí and the regnal year, is characteristically incomplete and off-center. The entire design reflects the rough artisanal quality inherent to hammered cob coinage of colonial Spanish America. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Philip V twice occupied the Spanish throne — abdicating in 1724 in favor of his son Luis I, then resuming rule after Luis died of smallpox just seven months later. The Potosí mint operated throughout this turbulent period as the primary silver source for the entire Spanish empire, drawing on Cerro Rico ore that had been financing Bourbon and Habsburg ambitions alike for nearly two centuries by this point.
KM#27a distinguishes this issue by its assayer marks, which changed several times across the 1729–1747 window.
