| Reverse description | A bold, ornate cross occupies the central field, its four arms extending toward the flan edges and dividing the design into quadrants. Each quadrant is filled with alternating castles and lions in the Spanish heraldic tradition, enclosed within a tressure of pointed cusps forming a quadrilobe border. A partial Latin legend surrounds the design, though much of it is lost beyond the irregular edge of the cob flan, as is characteristic of hammered macuquina coinage from the Mexico City Mint. |
