| Beschrijving voorzijde | Crude, primitively rendered bust of Ferdinand VII facing right, occupying the central field. The effigy is executed in a rough, provincial style characteristic of emergency coinage, with minimal facial detail. A circular legend in Latin script runs along the periphery, partially legible due to the irregular flan and crude striking. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The date 1813 appears in the upper field, with the fractional denomination 1/2 prominently rendered in the centre as a stacked fraction. The figures are boldly struck relative to the roughly finished flan. A toothed or rope border frames the design along the periphery, consistent with the emergency cast coinage style of the royalist enclave of Santa Marta. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Santa Marta issued its own copper coinage during the independence struggle when royalist forces still controlled the city, making this one of the more politically ambiguous provincial emissions of the period. The city changed hands repeatedly between 1810 and 1815, and local copper issues filled a void left by the near-total collapse of normal colonial monetary supply lines from Bogotá and Cartagena.
KM#C3 is poorly documented in most references, with surviving specimens showing considerable variation in flan preparation — likely the result of improvised local production rather than any established mint infrastructure.
