The royal crown surmounts the shield. The mint mark (M) and assayer initials appear to the left of the shield, with the denomination numeral and assayer initials to the right.

| Reverse description | A quartered cross divides the field within a prominent polylobed (octolobe) inner border, placing castles in the upper-left and lower-right quarters and rampant lions in the upper-right and lower-left quarters, representing the kingdoms of Castile and León. The date 1751 appears at the top of the circular legend, with the royal title HISPANIARUM REX continuing around the periphery in Latin script. The scalloped octolobe frame gives the reverse a distinctive decorative character typical of Spanish colonial-era milled coinage. |
