| 表面の説明 | Draped and armored bust of Fernando VI facing right, with long curled wig, occupying the central field. The date appears in the lower exergual area flanked by small rosette ornaments. The encircling Latin legend reads from lower left and continues around the upper periphery, separated from the bust by a plain inner field. The portrait is rendered in the Baroque style typical of Spanish colonial milled coinage of the mid-18th century, with fine detailing on the armor and lace cravat. |

The "macuquina" gold coinage of colonial Mexico — crudely struck cobs produced by hammer rather than screw press — was still being phased out during Fernando VI's reign when this milled issue entered production. The transition was not purely aesthetic: Spanish authorities had grown frustrated that irregularly shaped cobs were routinely clipped, their gold shaved and the pieces passed at full face value. The milled coinage, with its reeded edge and precise dimensions, made such fraud immediately visible.
The Mexico City mint was the largest gold producer in the Spanish colonial world during this period, fed by the silver and gold flows of New Spain's mining districts.
