| Reverse description | The reverse displays a large royal mantle or cloak spread open in the central field, above which a small cross appears at the top. Superimposed over the mantle is the royal cypher 'F7', representing Fernando VII, whose authority the insurgent Congress claimed to act in trust. The surrounding circular legend reads DEPOS. D. L. AUT. D., an abbreviation for 'Depositario de la Autoridad' (Depositary of Authority), asserting the Congress's legitimacy as custodian of the deposed king's sovereignty. |
