| Reversbeschreibung | The crowned Royal Arms of Spain occupy the central field, depicting the quartered shield with the castles of Castile and lions of León, the lilies of the Bourbon dynasty, and the pomegranate of Granada at the base, all surmounted by an ornate royal crown. The shield is encircled by a decorative chain of the Order of the Golden Fleece, composed of flint-and-steel links with a pendant fleece at the base. The mint mark (Mo) appears to the left of the shield, the assayer initial (MF) to the right, and the denomination numeral (8) is also present in the field. A circular Latin legend runs along the outer border within the milled rim. |

Fernando VI ascended the Spanish throne in 1746 following the death of Felipe V, and the Mexican mint wasted little time updating its coinage to reflect the new reign. The 8 escudos of this period were produced under the "macuquina" transitional moment — the old cob-style coinage had officially been phased out in favor of milled production following the reforms mandated in the 1730s, and these Fernando VI issues represent the mint working within that newer discipline.
Mexico City was by this period the most productive gold mint in the Spanish colonial system. The assayer's marks on individual specimens from this short four-year reign window are the primary means of attributing them precisely within the type.
