(Translation: Ferdinand VII)
Reverse description Central field bears the bold letters 'SD' — the mintmark abbreviation for Santo Domingo — positioned above a fraction bar with the numeral '4' below, denoting the denomination of one-quarter real. The entire device is enclosed within a laurel wreath open at the top, where a small rosette or floral ornament serves as a decorative finial. The flan is notably irregular and the relief is somewhat crude, consistent with the hand-cast production methods employed at Santo Domingo during this emergency coinage period.
