| Reverse description | Crowned Royal Arms of Spain at center, displaying the quartered shield with the castles of Castile and lions of León, with the oval escutcheon of the House of Bourbon at the fess point. The shield is flanked on either side by the crowned Pillars of Hercules, representing the Strait of Gibraltar and symbolizing the Spanish Empire. The encircling Latin legend reads HISPAN. ET IND. REX, with the mint mark, denomination, and assayer initials distributed in the left and right fields. The composition is rendered in crisp milled relief characteristic of the reformed coinage of the Bourbon period. |
