| Beschrijving keerzijde | The quartered arms of Castile and León displayed within four quarters divided by a bold cross, with castles in two quarters and rampant lions in the opposing two quarters, consistent with the royal arms of Spain under the Habsburg dynasty. The Latin legend HISPANIARVM · REX surrounds the shield, with the date 1643 incorporated into the legend. The design is characteristic of the cob-style hammered coinage struck at the Madrid mint during the reign of Felipe IV. |

The 1643 silver resello maravedis belong to one of the more chaotic episodes in Castilian monetary history. Facing chronic fiscal collapse from decades of war — the Thirty Years' War, the Portuguese Revolt of 1640, the Catalonian revolt of the same year — the Crown ordered copper vellón coinage to be counterstamped and revalued, then later resmelted and restruck in debased silver as an emergency measure. The Madrid mint's 1643 silver resellos were part of this desperate cycle, an attempt to restore credibility to a currency the market had largely stopped trusting.
Cal#1407 specimens frequently show doubled or misaligned counterstamp punches from the restriking process.
