| Obverse description | Central field features the crowned Burgundian cross of Saint Andrew — a saltire with confronted fire-steels and flints — flanked by the date 16-32 split across the horizontal arms. The cross is elaborately decorated with floral and heraldic embellishments in the Gothic-Renaissance style typical of Spanish Netherlands coinage. A royal crown surmounts the cross at the top of the design. The surrounding legend, struck in Latin capital letters, reads PHIL IIII D G HISP ET INDIAR REX, identifying Philip IV as King of Spain and the Indies. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan and uneven strike of hammered silver production. |
