| Descripción del anverso |
Quarter-circle segment cut from a Spanish or Spanish colonial 8 reales cob or milled coin, bearing a small rectangular countermark applied by Sierra Leone authorities with the royal cypher 'WR' (Gulielmus Rex) in relief, denoting the reign of King William IV. The host coin's original design elements — including partial legends, cross motif, and shield fragments — remain visible in the field. The irregular cut edge is characteristic of emergency fractional currency practice. The countermark authenticates the piece for local circulation at a value of one quarter dollar. |

| Descripción del reverso |
The reverse displays the residual design of the host Spanish or colonial 8 reales coin, showing fragmentary portions of the original legend, cross, and heraldic devices inherent to the cob or milled coinage from which the quarter segment was cut. The field retains the characteristic worn and irregular surface typical of countermarked emergency issues, with partial inscriptions visible along the curved edge of the quarter-circle flan. |
