Reverse description	Two crowned globes flanked by the Pillars of Hercules, each pillar draped with a banner bearing the motto 'PLUS VLTRA', symbolizing Spain's dominion beyond the known world. The date appears in the exergue, with the assayer's initial below the globes. The legend encircling the design reads 'VTRAQUE VNUM', referring to the union of the Old and New Worlds. The overall composition is bold and well-struck, typical of the Lima pillar coinage series issued under Fernando VI.
