| Reverse description | A plain cross with serifs occupies the central field, dividing the design into four quarters alternately bearing the castles of Castile and the lions of León in the characteristic quartered arms of the Spanish Crown. A partial circular Latin legend runs along the periphery of the irregularly shaped flan. The design is struck in the macuquina (cob) tradition, resulting in weak and off-center detail typical of this series. The heraldic devices are boldly rendered despite the crude planchet preparation. |
