Reverse description Central monogram comprising the crowned letters 'PHIL' (Philip) with the assayer's initial 'R' below, flanked by the two crowned Pillars of Hercules representing the Strait of Gibraltar, each pillar wrapped with a banner bearing the motto 'PLUS VLTRA'. Wavy lines beneath the central device allude to the sea between the Old and New Worlds. A dotted inner circle and partial circumferential legend surround the design, though the irregular cob flan causes much of the legend to be off-flan.
Reverse script Latin
Reverse lettering HISPANIARVM ET INDIARVM REX
