| Obverse description | A plain cross divides the field into four quarters, with the initials S (left) and M (right) appearing in the upper two quarters, a castle in the lower-left quarter, and a sword with a pyramid of cannon balls in the lower-right quarter. The entire central device is encircled by a wreath of laurel or oak branches, forming a decorative border around the quartered cross design. The coin's surface shows the characteristically rough, irregular fabric typical of emergency cast coinage. No legend is present; the mint monogram S·M stands for Santa Marta. |
