| Reverse description | Central design featuring two crowned Pillars of Hercules, each surmounted by a crown, with the mint marks S and P flanking the pillars and a banner inscribed PLVS (rendered as P L.V S) draped across them, alluding to the royal motto Plus Ultra. The pillars are set within a beaded inner border, with the peripheral legend CAR + OLVS + IHOANA + REI P L.V S divided by ornamental acorn or club stops. The overall composition reflects the standard early colonial Nueva España cob coinage style, struck by the hammered macuquina technique. |
