| Obverse description | The obverse displays the host coin's design as a Spanish Colonial macuquina (cob) or milled real, featuring the Pillars of Hercules with crowned globes and the motto PLUS VLTRA visible in the field surrounding the central heart-shaped cutout. The legend reads VTRAQUE VNUM along the upper periphery with the date 1738 at the base, referencing the original host coin's issue year. Two crowned heraldic supporters flank the central pillars device. The entire design is characteristic of Spanish colonial silver coinage adapted for circulation in Martinique. |
