| Obverse description | Central field bears the large Roman numeral value 'VIII' in bold relief, with a small cross potent above. Below the numeral, the mintmark 'MD' (Madrid) and the assayer's initial 'B' are struck in the lower field. The surrounding legend 'PHILIPPVS · IIII · D · G' runs along the periphery, identifying the issuer as Philip IV by the Grace of God. The coin exhibits the characteristic irregular flan and uneven strike typical of Spanish hammered coinage of this period. |
