| Obverse description | The quartered royal arms of Spain occupy the central field, displaying alternating castles of Castile and lions of León within a crowned escutcheon, surmounted by an ornate royal crown. To the left of the shield appear the assayer initial and the Potosí mint mark (P), while the denomination numeral 8 appears to the right. A beaded inner border encircles the device, and the surrounding Latin legend, partially visible due to the irregular cob flan, reads PHILIPPVS IIII DEI GRATIA HISPANIARVM. |
