| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field dominated by the quartered Spanish royal coat of arms, featuring alternating castles and lions with a central escutcheon, surmounted by a large royal crown. The denomination numeral '1' appears to the left of the shield and the letter 'Q' (for Quarto) to the right, flanking the arms as value indicators. A circular Latin legend surrounds the design, reading YSAB • II • D • G • HISP • ET IND • R • M • R, invoking Isabella II by the Grace of God, Queen of Spain and the Indies. The rim is plain with a finely dentilated border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Philippine quarto series of the 1830s was struck under Spanish colonial authority at the Manila mint, which had reopened in 1829 after a long dormancy. These copper pieces circulated heavily among the lower-denomination transactions of the local economy, and the Manila mint's chronic difficulties with copper planchet quality during this decade produced frequent surface irregularities that are endemic to the type rather than indicative of post-mint damage.
Isabella II was only four years old in 1835, ruling nominally through her mother María Cristina as regent — a regency that itself depended on the support of the liberal faction against the Carlist claimants then fighting in the Spanish mainland.
