| Obverse description | Central device consists of the quartered Royal Arms of Castile and León within a plain shield, displaying alternating castles and lions in the four quarters, surmounted by a crown. The mint mark 'SF' (Santa Fe) and assayer's initial appear to the left of the shield, with the denomination numeral '4' also present in the field. The surrounding legend reads PHILIPPUS V D G HISPAN ET IND REX, partially visible due to the irregular flan typical of cob coinage. The strike, characteristic of macuquina (cob) production, is boldly rendered though unevenly distributed across the planchet. |
