| Reverse description | Bold equal-armed cross with seriffed terminals set within a quadrilobe (quatrefoil) border, dividing the field into four quadrants each adorned with a heraldic fleur-de-lis or similar ornamental device. The circular Latin legend HISPANIARVM REX, followed by the date, runs along the periphery of the irregular flan, partially visible due to the characteristic off-flan striking typical of hammered cob coinage (macuquina). The overall design is deeply struck with a robust, primitive aesthetic consistent with the escudo series of Felipe IV. |
