1/4 Real

Descrizione del dritto	A crowned rampant lion passant guardant to the left occupies the central field, rendered in bold relief with clearly articulated mane and curling tail. The heraldic lion, emblematic of the Kingdom of Castile and León, is shown with forepaws raised in the traditional rampant posture. The design fills the field with no inscriptions or legends. The border is defined by a continuous beaded circle, characteristic of the small-denomination Philippine colonial coinage of the late 18th century.

Informazioni aggiuntive	Struck under Spanish colonial authority, this issue predates the Manila mint's formal reestablishment — production at this scale required dies and administrative oversight routed through Mexico City, reflecting just how thinly the colonial minting apparatus was stretched across the Pacific. The quarter real served fractional commerce in a colony where small silver was chronically undersupplied relative to demand.
