| Obverse description | Draped bust of Ferdinand VII facing right, rendered in a somewhat crude provincial style characteristic of early Zacatecas emergency coinage. The king is depicted wearing a laurel wreath and military drapery. The circular legend reads FERDIN·VII·2R·DEI·GRATIA, with the date 1811 appearing in the lower field beneath the bust. The portrait reflects the limited die-cutting resources available to the Royalist mint during the Mexican War of Independence. |
