| Reverse description | A displayed eagle of Saint John the Evangelist, wings spread, occupies the upper field and serves as the royal supporter for two large heraldic shields placed side by side beneath it. The dexter shield bears the quartered arms of Castile and Leon, while the sinister shield displays the quartered arms of Aragon and Sicily, together representing the united crowns of the Catholic Monarchs. A beaded inner circle frames the central device, and the surrounding Gothic Latin legend reads SUB UMBRA ALARUM TVARUM PROTEGE NOS, a devotional invocation meaning 'Protect us under the shadow of Thy wings.' The overall composition reflects the Isabelline Gothic style characteristic of late-fifteenth-century Castilian coinage. |
