| Obverse description | Quartered shield of Castile and León within a beaded border, displaying alternating castles and lions in the four quadrants. The crowned royal arms are rendered in the typical cob-style hammered technique, with irregular flan edges characteristic of emergency or colonial issues. No surrounding legend is present on this face; the denomination mark VIII appears in the field. |
