Reverse description The crowned Royal Arms of Spain occupy the central field, depicted as a quartered shield bearing the castles of Castile and lions of León, with the Granada pomegranate in the base and the Bourbon escutcheon en surtout at centre. The shield is flanked by the Pillars of Hercules, each entwined with a banner inscribed PLUS VLTRA, symbolising the Spanish overseas empire. A radiating royal crown surmounts the shield. The encircling Latin legend names the monarch as King of Spain and the Indies, with the Mexico City mint mark, assayer initials, and denomination visible in the legend field.
