| Reverse description | The reverse presents the cut quarter section of the host Spanish 8 reales coin, with portions of the original design partially visible. The numeral '18' appears as a countermark denoting the revalued denomination of 18 stuivers. The irregular cut edges are characteristic of the sanctioned cutting practice used in the Caribbean to create fractional emergency currency, with the milled border of the original coin visible along the arc of the quarter segment. |
