| Beschrijving voorzijde | Armored draped bust of Carlos III facing right, struck from the old Carlos III dies despite the reign of Carlos IV, as indicated by the portrait style of the previous monarch. The effigy is rendered in high relief with fine detail on the armor. A beaded inner circle surrounds the bust, with the royal legend arcing around the periphery and the date appearing at the bottom of the field. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
This transitional issue was struck in the brief window between Carlos IV's proclamation as king in December 1788 and the formal updating of the Mexico City mint's dies. The portrait retained is that of his father, Carlos III, who had died on December 14, 1788 — meaning coins bearing the old effigy circulated legally under a king whose face did not appear on them. The numeral IV in the legend creates the defining anachronism: Carlos III's portrait paired with his son's regnal number.
KM#119 is consequently among the shortest-lived regular issue types from the colonial Mexican series, superseded once new portrait dies arrived from Spain.
