| Obverse description | Bare-headed bust of Ferdinand VII facing left, rendered in low relief in a somewhat provincial style characteristic of the Manila Mint's early coinage. The portrait is centrally positioned within the field, with the truncation of the bust visible at the bottom. A continuous circular legend surrounds the effigy, reading from the lower left and separated by pellets. The overall design reflects the colonial Spanish coinage tradition adapted for production in the Philippine Islands. |
