| Obverse description | Armored and draped bust of Felipe V facing right, rendered in a baroque style with flowing curly hair, occupying the central field. The surrounding legend reads FERD VI D G HISP ET IND REX, referencing Fernando VI as King of the Spains and the Indies, while the date appears in the exergue below the effigy. The design reflects the transitional period in which the bust die of Felipe V continued to be used under Fernando VI's reign at the Santiago mint. |
