| 背面描述 | Crowned quartered royal arms of Spain at centre, displaying the castles of Castile and lions of León in the principal quarters, with the granada (pomegranate) of Granada in base and the fleur-de-lis of the Bourbon dynasty in an inescutcheon at fess point. The denomination numeral '1' appears to the left of the shield and the letter 'S' (for escudo) to the right. Below the shield, the Potosí mint mark 'PTS' is flanked by the assayer's initials 'PJ'. The circular legend IN·UTROQ·FELIX·A·D reads 'Happy in Both' (referring to the Old and New Worlds), separated by small floral ornaments. A milled border frames the entire design. |

By 1822, Ferdinand VII had been restored to the Spanish throne for eight years, but his hold on the Americas was disintegrating rapidly. Upper Peru — where Potosí sat — remained one of the last royalist strongholds on the continent, besieged politically and militarily by patriot forces closing in from multiple directions. The mint continued striking in the king's name largely out of administrative inertia and royalist obligation rather than any realistic expectation of a continuing Spanish colonial order.
Potosí fell to Antonio José de Sucre's forces in April 1825, making this short three-year emission the final gold coinage struck for a Spanish monarch at what had been the most productive mint in the Western Hemisphere for over two centuries.
