| Reverse description | The reverse features a high-relief facsimile reproduction of the first coin ever minted in Hispaniola during the 16th century, rendered in a deliberately worn and antique appearance to evoke the original hammered coinage. The facsimile design depicts a quartered royal arms of Castile and León set within a beaded inner circle, faithfully reproducing the crude, irregular style characteristic of early colonial New World coinage. A circumferential legend around the broad flat border reads FACSIMIL PRIMERA MONEDA ACUÑADA EN LA HISPANIOLA - SIGLO XVI-, identifying the subject as a facsimile of the first coin struck in Hispaniola in the sixteenth century. |
