| Reverse description | The crowned composite arms of Philip II of Spain occupy the central field, quartering Castile, León, Aragon, and other Iberian territories, with an inescutcheon bearing the arms of Burgundy-Brabant at the base. The royal shield is surmounted by an arched imperial crown. The date appears at the conclusion of the encircling Latin legend, which is interrupted by a mint mark. The die work reflects the typical hammered technique of the period, with some irregularity in the strike consistent with provincial Tournai production. |
