背面描述	The royal arms of Spain, quartered with castles and lions and bearing a central escutcheon with the Bourbon fleurs-de-lis, surmounted by an imperial crown. Flanking the shield are the Pillars of Hercules, each entwined with a banner. The denomination 4R appears to the left of the left pillar, the assayer initials PJ or J to the right of the right pillar, and the mint mark PTS (Potosí) below the left pillar. The circumferential legend reads HISPAN · ET · IND · REX, separated by dot stops, with a milled denticulated border.

附加信息	Potosí's output during this window was anything but stable. The mint changed hands repeatedly between royalist and patriot forces during the Wars of Independence — Potosí fell to patriot armies in 1810, was retaken by royalists, changed hands again in 1813, and again in 1815. By 1816 the royalists held the city, which is why coinage struck in Ferdinand VII's name continued here through the early 1820s even as the rest of Spanish South America was collapsing. The series ends in 1825, the year Bolívar's forces permanently secured Upper Peru and the city became part of the newly declared Republic of Bolivia.
