| Reverse description | The reverse retains the remnants of the host coin's original design, partially obscured or effaced as a result of the countermarking process. The Type VII government countermark, applied within a small incuse circle approximately 5 mm in diameter, features a lion passant within a circle surrounded by the legend HABILITADA POR EL GOBIERNO. Underlying design elements from the host coin remain visible in the field, though detail varies considerably depending on the degree of wear and the force of the countermark application. |
