| Beschrijving keerzijde | The coat of arms of the Spanish Crown occupies the central field, displaying the quartered royal escutcheon with the castles of Castile and lions of León in the principal quarters, within an elaborately ornamented shield surmounted by the royal crown. The cross of Jerusalem and the granada (pomegranate) of Granada appear in their customary positions within the shield. The design is rendered in high relief on a specially prepared planchet, characteristic of the escudo de presentación series, and is enclosed within a plain inner circle with a circular Latin legend running along the outer periphery. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Felipe V was briefly king twice — he abdicated in 1724 in favor of his son Luis I, then reclaimed the throne seven months later when Luis died of smallpox. These cob-style gold pieces from his first reign were struck at Mexico City during a period when the Spanish Crown was still fighting the War of the Spanish Succession, and colonial remittances in gold were critical to funding that conflict. The macuquina coinage of this period is notoriously irregular, hand-cut from cast bars and hammered between crude dies.
KM#R55 designates a royal presentation strike, distinguished from ordinary circulation cobs by sharper die definition and more complete design rendering.
