| Obverse description | Central field dominated by the crowned quartered arms of Spain, featuring castles and lions in alternating quarters with a pomegranate at base, all surmounted by a large ornate royal crown. The denomination numeral '2' appears to the right of the shield, with the assayer's initial 'R' to the left. The circular legend, in Latin, reads CAR·III·D·G·HISP·ET·IND·R·, identifying the issuing monarch Charles III as King of Spain and the Indies. A continuous milled border surrounds the design. |
