| Additional information |
Felipe IV never visited Majorca, and the island's mint operated with considerable autonomy throughout his reign — answering more to local administrative pressures than to Castilian monetary reform. The Majorcan 4 reales series of this period is complicated by inconsistent silver fineness in practice, with assayers frequently cited in contemporary records for failing to maintain the mandated standard.
Cal#681 covers a span of over three decades, meaning die variety attribution within this type remains unresolved for most examples.
