| Reverse description | A large, elaborately quartered oval shield bearing the manifold dynastic arms of the Spanish Habsburgs — incorporating the quarterings of Castile, León, Aragon, Sicily, Austria, Burgundy, and Naples — surmounted by a royal crown and set within a ornate baroque cartouche of foliate and scroll-work. The Latin legend POPVLOR·SECVRITATI· encircles the composition within a beaded border, the mintmaster's initials appearing in the lower field. The heraldic rendering is bold and deeply struck, characteristic of hammered Neapolitan silver of this period. |
