| Obverse description | Central device comprising the quartered Royal Arms of Spain surmounted by a royal crown, the shield displaying the castles of Castile and the lions of León in alternating quarters, with the fleur-de-lis of the Bourbon dynasty in the central escutcheon. The arms are rendered in bold relief within a plain field. The circular legend PHILIPPUS V D G runs along the periphery, separated from the design by a reeded border. Small rosette or mullet ornaments punctuate the legend at intervals, characteristic of the Seville Mint milled coinage of the early Bourbon period. |

| Reverse description | Central cross dividing the field into four quarters, each framed by a quatrefoil or polylobed inner border, bearing alternating castles of Castile and rampant lions of León in high relief. The date 1729 appears prominently above the cross in the upper field, flanked by small rosette ornaments. The circumferential legend HISPANIARUM REX encircles the design, with the Seville Mint mark 'S' visible at the beginning of the legend. Small ornamental stops separate the legend elements, and a reeded outer border frames the entire reverse. |
