| Obverse lettering | PHILIP·V·D·G·HISPAN·ET·IND·REX 1741 |
| Reverse description | The crowned quartered arms of Spain occupy the central field, featuring the castles of Castile and the lions of León in the principal quarters, with the fleurs-de-lis of the French Bourbon dynasty in an inescutcheon at the center, reflecting Philip V's dynastic origins. The shield is surmounted by a large ornate royal crown. The mint mark S and assayer initials PJ appear at the base of the design between rosette stops, identifying this piece as a product of the Seville mint. The surrounding Latin legend INITIUM SAPIENTIAE TIMOR DOMINI encircles the design, translating as 'The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.' A milled border frames the entire reverse. |
