| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of King Fernando VII facing right, rendered in high relief in the neoclassical style, with a laurel wreath tied at the back by a ribbon. The surrounding legend reads FERDIN • VII • D • G • HISP • ET IND • R •, meaning Fernando VII by the Grace of God, King of Spain and the Indies. The mint date 1817 appears in the lower exergual area of the field. The coin's milled border frames the entire composition, and the flat field around the portrait shows characteristic wear consistent with circulation. |
