To the left of the shield appears the assayer initial J and to the right the denomination numeral 4, both flanked by small floral ornaments. The mint mark LM for Lima appears at the base. The circumferential Latin legend INITIUM SAPIENTIAE TIMOR DOMINI surrounds the entire design, with a milled border at the rim. |
