| Obverse description | The obverse displays the denomination and royal attribution arranged in four cartouches across the field, with '5.PS.' at the top, 'FER' to the left, 'VII' to the right, and the date '1809' at the bottom. The inscriptions are rendered in bold capital letters within rectangular frames, creating a stark, functional design characteristic of emergency wartime coinage. The sparse field and absence of a portrait reflect the provisional nature of this issue, struck during the Peninsular War in the name of Ferdinand VII. |
