| 背面描述 | Two crowned Pillars of Hercules flanking a central globe bearing the crowned royal monogram 'GR', resting above wavy lines representing the seas. The legend UTRAQUE UNUM ('Both as One') arcs across the upper field, referencing the union of the Old and New Worlds. The mint mark 'Mo' (Mexico City) appears to the lower left and lower right of the central device, and the date 1749 is inscribed in the exergue. The design conforms to the classic Pillar (Columnario) type of Spanish colonial coinage struck at Mexico City. |

Jamaica lacked a dedicated coinage for most of the colonial period, relying instead on countermarked Spanish colonial silver to fill the gap. This piece — a Spanish colonial eight reales, almost certainly struck at Mexico City — was officially countermarked by Jamaican authorities to fix its value in local currency and authorize its use on the island. The 1758 date reflects the reign of Ferdinand VI of Spain, whose name appears in the original legend despite Britain and Spain being intermittent rivals throughout this period.
KM#8.2 distinguishes the Mexico City host coins from those of other mints in this series.
