| Obverse lettering | +PHILIPPUS+V+D+G+ |
| Reverse description | The reverse presents the remaining annular band of the host Spanish colonial 2 Reales, with its central area punched out. The surviving ring retains the reeded outer edge and carries the royal Latin legend +HISPANIARUM+REX+ (King of the Spains), separated by cross-shaped ornamental stops, with the date 1723 prominently displayed at the top of the band. Vestiges of the host coin's crowned arms design are partially visible along the inner edge of the ring where the punch has truncated the original central devices. The bold, well-struck lettering and the date are fully legible, consistent with the milled output of the Seville (S) mint of Spain. |
