| Reverse description | Crowned Spanish royal shield at center, flanked by the Pillars of Hercules, each surmounted by a crown, with the mintmark JP (Lima, assayer initials) visible in the upper field. The surrounding legend reads HISPAN ET IND R, separated by pellets, with fine denticles along the rim. The shield displays the quartered arms of Castile and León with the dynastic escutcheon, in the tradition of Spanish colonial heraldic coinage. |
