| Reverse description | Central crowned Gothic 'I' (Roman numeral one, denoting the denomination mark) with a small 'R' to the left, all set within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding field carries a partial circular legend consistent with early Peruvian colonial cob coinage. No mint mark is present, as is characteristic of this early Lima issue. The hammered technique results in an irregular, slightly uneven strike across the design. |
