| Obverse description | Central field displays the royal cypher 'F.7.' — the crowned monogram of Ferdinand VII — with the letter F and numeral 7 rendered in bold relief beneath a large royal crown. The crown, of Spanish imperial type with arched form and prominent points, dominates the upper portion of the flan. The coin exhibits the characteristically irregular planchet typical of cast copper issues from Santo Domingo, with a granular border running along the rim. |

| 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. |
