| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of King Carlos III facing right, rendered in the neoclassical style typical of late 18th-century Spanish colonial coinage. The effigy occupies the central field, with the king's hair elaborately dressed and tied at the back. The circumferential legend CAROLUS·III·DEI·GRATIA runs along the upper periphery, separated from the bust by a beaded inner border. The date appears in the lower exergual area beneath the portrait. |
