Reverse description The reverse presents a right-facing bust of Juan de la Cierva, the Spanish aviation pioneer and inventor of the autogyro, rendered in high relief with fine detail to his suit and tie. Behind his portrait to the left, a large neoclassical palatial building — rendered in intricate low relief — occupies the background field, likely referencing a notable architectural landmark associated with his heritage. The subject's name 'JUAN DE LA CIERVA' is inscribed in a curved arc along the upper field, while the denomination '20 DOLLARS' appears in raised lettering along the lower margin. The frosted portrait contrasts sharply with the mirror-polished field, characteristic of proof coinage.
