| Obverse description | Central device features the quartered Royal Arms of Castile and León, displaying alternating castles and lions within a shield surmounted by a royal crown. The upper left and lower right quarters bear the castle of Castile, while the upper right and lower left quarters display the rampant lion of León. The numeral IIII appears prominently to the right of the shield, denoting the denomination. Partial elements of the surrounding Latin legend PHILIPPVS IIII D G are visible along the irregularly clipped flan periphery, consistent with the cob (macuquina) production method. The overall strike is bold in the central device but softens toward the margins, typical of New Granada hammered coinage of this period. |
