| Reverse description | The reverse field displays a multi-line proclamation inscription arranged concentrically within a raised circular border, reading EN SU PROCLAMACION • LA • CIUDAD DE SAN LUIS POTOSI • A•D•1790•, commemorating the royal proclamation of Carlos IV as observed by the city of San Luis Potosí. The inscription is surrounded by an elaborate outer border of repeating fleur-de-lis and foliate ornaments in high relief, consistent in style with other Spanish colonial proclamation medals of the period. The plain, unadorned field throws the bold capital lettering into strong relief. |
