| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of Ferdinand VII facing right, wearing a paludamentum fastened at the shoulder with a circular brooch, hair tied with a ribbon bow at the nape. The effigy is rendered in the neoclassical style introduced for Spanish colonial coinage in the late Bourbon period. The circular legend surrounds the bust, interrupted at the base by the four-digit date in the exergue area. A toothed or serrated inner border frames the entire obverse field. |
