| Obverse description | Armored and crowned bust of Felipe III facing right, rendered in the crude relief characteristic of hammered coinage. The royal effigy displays a ruffled collar and draped armor visible at the shoulder. A circular Latin legend surrounds the portrait within a beaded inner border, partially legible due to the irregular flan and weak strike typical of Majorcan hammered issues of this period. |

| Reverse description | A diamond-shaped (lozenge) quartered shield set diagonally in the field, displaying the alternating bars of Aragon and the castle of Castile in the quarters, surrounded by a partial Latin circular legend within a beaded border. The shield's pointed orientation and rough execution are consistent with hammered Majorcan coinage of the early seventeenth century. The legend is partially off-flan due to the irregular planchet. |
