| Beschrijving voorzijde | Draped bust of King Charles III facing right, rendered in high relief in the Baroque portrait style engraved by Tomás Francisco Prieto. The king's hair is shown in a flowing, elaborately curled wig tied with a ribbon at the nape, and his shoulders are covered by an ornate mantle. The circumferential Latin legend reads CAROLUS III D G HISP ET IND REX, divided across the upper and lateral fields, while the date appears in the lower exergue. The milled border frames the design with a fine toothed edge. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned royal arms of Spain, displayed within the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece, occupy the central field. The quartered shield bears the castles of Castile, lions of León, the fleurs-de-lis of the Bourbon dynasty, and the pomegranate of Granada, with the escutcheon of Anjou overall. The circumferential Latin legend IN UTROQ FELIX AUSPICE DEO encircles the composition, while the mintmark and assayer's initials appear in the lower field flanking the base of the shield. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carlos III inherited the Spanish throne in 1759 after the death of his half-brother Fernando VI, arriving from Naples where he had ruled as king for over two decades. The 1760–1762 date range on this type reflects the transitional coinage struck immediately after his accession, before the major monetary reforms he later pushed through the colonial mints. These early issues were produced simultaneously at multiple peninsular and American mints, each adding its own assayer marks — a detail that drives significant collector differentiation within the KM#397 type.
