Reverse description Two crowned Pillars of Hercules, representing the boundary of the known world and a central symbol of Spanish imperial coinage, occupy the central field. Between and flanking the pillars, a mint mark and assayer initial are visible. The legend ISPANIARVM ET INDIA R surrounds the design, proclaiming sovereignty over Spain and the Indies. The strike is uneven and the flan irregular, typical of hammered colonial maravedis of this period.
