A large ornate royal crown surmounts the central device. The circular legend reads HABILITADO POR EL REY N.S.D. FERN VII, affirming the coin's validation by royal authority, and is distributed around the entire periphery. The border is composed of closely set reeding or milling teeth, characteristic of the Manila countermark application. |
