| Reverse description | The reverse displays a richly colored scene depicting two period galleons sailing turbulent seas, rendered in full polychrome enamel color against a mirror-polished field. Mythological sea creatures, including a serpentine sea monster and a merman wielding a trident, populate the foreground waves, evoking the fantastical cartographic imagery of the Age of Discovery. The denomination 10 EURO appears in large numerals at the top of the field above the colored scene. The legend CENTENARIO DE LA VUELTA AL MUNDO is inscribed along the lower arc, with the crowned M mintmark of the Royal Mint of Spain visible in the right field. A small Roman numeral V appears to the lower left, referencing the fifth centenary of the circumnavigation. |
