| Reverse description | Reverse of the triangular cut segment displays the crowned Royal Arms of Spain in milled cob style, featuring the quartered castle and lion design flanked by the Pillars of Hercules. The partial legend HISPANA (part of HISPANARUM) is legible along the reeded border at right, along with partial date numerals at lower field. The irregular cut edges expose the host planchet's unfinished surfaces, consistent with the makeshift nature of this emergency countermarked coinage. |
