| Obverse description | Draped bust of Ferdinand VII facing right, depicting the young king in military dress with a ruffled collar and decorative cloak, rendered in the imaginary portrait style characteristic of early colonial milled coinage struck before an official likeness reached the mint. The circular legend reads FERDIN VII D G HISP ET IND R, with the date below the effigy. The field is framed by a fine milled border. |
