| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central design featuring two crowned Pillars of Hercules, the classical columns representing the Strait of Gibraltar, each entwined by a ribbon scroll bearing the motto PLUS and VLTRA respectively, flanking a crowned terrestrial globe depicted resting upon stylized waves. The mint mark Mo appears to the left and right of the central device at mid-field. The circular legend VTRAQUE VNUM arcs across the upper portion of the coin, while the date 1737 is prominently placed in the lower field between two rosette stops. The overall composition symbolizes the Spanish monarchy's dominion over both the Old and New Worlds. |

The 1732 date marks a turning point in New World coinage: that year, the Mexico City mint introduced the "milled" or "macuquina nueva" coinage under royal decree, replacing the cob (macuquina) silver that had been the standard since the sixteenth century. Felipe V had grown frustrated with the chronic underweighting and clipping fraud endemic to cob coinage, and the shift to mechanically struck, uniformly round planchets was partly a fiscal enforcement measure. Assayer marks during this transitional window can vary, and early examples sometimes show adjustment marks from planchet filing to meet weight tolerances.
