These countermarks were introduced by decree of October 27, 1832 due to the problems encountered with the larger countermarks of 1828 - 1830. Piercedor holed coins were declared not valid but later were countermarked directly over the hole with type V or Type VI countermarks and circulated freely. The latter types exist countermarked on both sides directly over the hole and are very scarce. These countermarks were retired in 1834 after the death of Ferdinan VII and replaced with a new die of Isabel II, Type VI. Coins with Type V countermark dated after 1834 can be considered counterfeit
