Beschrijving voorzijde Central device features the quartered Royal Arms of Castile and León within a shield, displaying alternating castles and lions in the four quadrants, with a pomegranate at the base, all set within an elaborately bordered frame. The irregular, flan-shaped planchet, characteristic of cob coinage, results in a partially visible legend around the periphery. The legend PHILIPPVS II DEI GRATIA runs along the outer border in Latin script, though portions are typically off-flan due to the nature of macuquina (cob) production. The strike is bold at center, with the heraldic detail of the shield rendered in the distinctive flat, high-relief style of mid-16th-century Spanish colonial die engraving. The assayer's initial and mint mark appear adjacent to the shield.

Beschrijving keerzijde The reverse displays a bold Jerusalem cross with splayed, floriated terminals occupying the central field, dividing the design into four quadrants, each containing alternating castles (towers) and lions rampant — the heraldic emblems of Castile and León respectively. The denomination numeral '8' appears to the upper left of the cross, with the assayer's initial and the Mo (Mexico) mint mark flanking the cross. The partial legend HISPANIARVM ET INDIARVM REX encircles the design in Latin script, though, as is typical of cob coinage, much of the legend falls beyond the irregular flan edge. The overall strike exhibits the characteristic uneven surface and irregular outline of hammered macuquina production from the Mexico City Mint during the reign of Philip II.
