| Reverse description | A detailed portrait of an Iberian wild boar (jabalí) in right-facing profile occupies the central field, rendered with fine engraved detail depicting the animal's snout, ears, and bristled coat. A stylised outline map of the Iberian Peninsula appears in the upper background. The legend FAUNA IBERICA arcs along the right rim with decorative stops, while the word JABALI is inscribed vertically along the left field. The date 2013 appears in small raised numerals to the lower left of the boar's head. |

| Additional information |
Part of the Casa de Moneda's "Fauna Ibérica" local currency series issued for the municipality of Montesclaros in Toledo, these copper pieces circulated within a tightly defined geographic area as a promotional and tourism-driven instrument rather than legal tender in any conventional sense. The wild boar was a deliberate choice — feral populations in the Montes de Toledo remain dense enough to be both a hunting attraction and an agricultural problem for the region's dehesa landowners.
