| Beschrijving keerzijde | The crowned royal arms of Spain occupy the central field, featuring the quartered shield with castles of Castile and lions of León in the principal quarters, and a small escutcheon at centre bearing the fleur-de-lis of the Bourbon dynasty. The shield is flanked on either side by the Pillars of Hercules, each surmounted by a crown, representing Spain's colonial dominion. The circular legend reads HISPAN ET IND REX, with the mint mark NR (Nueva Reino, for Bogota), the denomination 2R, and the assayer initials JJ distributed around the periphery. The entire design is enclosed within a reeded border. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Carlos IV's accession in 1788 forced a wholesale re-engraving of dies across Spain's American mints, replacing his father Charles III's portrait and royal cipher throughout the colonial system. Bogotá was among the slower mints to transition, and the earliest strikes of this type show workmanship inconsistencies attributable to locally-trained engravers working without direct supervision from Madrid.
The Nueva Granada viceroyalty was in political ferment through this window — the Comunero Rebellion of 1781 still fresh enough that colonial administrators kept close watch on public sentiment. These reales circulated alongside contraband and clipped coinage in a regional economy that the Crown could never fully regularize.
