| Obverse description | Cob-style (macuquina) obverse displaying the crowned royal monogram of Felipe V at center, flanked by the assayer initial R and the mint mark Mo (Mexico City) to the right. A bold cross divides the field, with the denomination numeral 2 visible within the design. The irregular flan, characteristic of cob coinage, shows the partial strike typical of colonial milled cob issues. The legend PHILIPVS V DEI G, affirming the king's title by divine grace, appears partially around the periphery in Roman capitals. |
