| Obverse description | The obverse depicts a stylized effigy of Don Quixote de la Mancha seated and absorbed in reading an open book, rendered in a modern illustrative style against a bisected field of contrasting mirror and matte finishes. The figure is shown in full length, seated atop a stack of books, with elongated gaunt features, a beard, and period costume. The legend 'ESPAÑA 2005' arcs across the upper left field, while 'IV CENTENARIO DE LA PRIMERA EDICIÓN DE «EL QUIJOTE»' runs along the right and lower periphery. The beaded border frames the design around the full circumference of the coin. |
