| Reverse description | A bold cross patée dominates the central field, dividing the die into four quadrants, each containing a partial legend. The denomination numeral '2' appears prominently in the upper field above the cross. The mint mark 'P' (for Potosí) is visible to the upper left, and the assayer's initial appears in the adjacent quadrant. The lower field displays the last two digits of the date, reading '84', consistent with a 1684 issue. The surrounding Latin legend, partially obscured by the irregular cob planchet, invokes the royal titles of Charles II. |
