| Obverse description | Armored and draped bust of Philip IV, King of Spain, facing right, wearing a prominent ruffled lace collar and a laurel crown, rendered in high relief in the baroque manner. The king's flowing hair and beard are finely detailed, with ornate shoulder armor visible at the truncation. The date 1630 appears in the lower field below the bust truncation. The surrounding Latin legend reads PHILIPPVS IIII REX HISP, distributed around the periphery of the coin. |

The peripheral Latin legend MEDIOLANI DVX ET C· identifies Philip IV as Duke of Milan and lord of associated territories. |
