| Reverse description | The crowned quartered shield of the Spanish royal arms occupies the central field, displaying castles (Castile) and lions (León) in the traditional arrangement, with a small escutcheon at the center point. The royal crown surmounts the shield, rendered with fine detail typical of colonial milled coinage. The circumferential Latin legend NOMINA MAGNA SEQUOR encircles the design, with the mint mark and assayer's initial positioned in the lower field flanking the base of the shield. |
