| Reverse description | The crowned Royal Arms of Spain at centre, displaying the quartered shield with castles of Castile and lions of León in the principal quarters, with the escutcheon of the House of Bourbon in the centre. Flanking the shield are the Pillars of Hercules, each surmounted by a crown and representing the Strait of Gibraltar, symbolic of the Spanish overseas empire. The circular legend reads ·HISPAN·ET IND·REX·M·4R·F·M·, incorporating the denomination 4R, the Mexico City mint mark M, and the assayer initials FM for Francisco Arance Cobos and Manuel Trigo. A toothed border frames the design throughout. |
