| Reverse description | The reverse retains the design of the original Spanish-American milled host coin, typically featuring the crowned hemispheres flanked by crowned pillars of Hercules with scrolling banners, surrounded by the partial royal legend of the Spanish monarch. The surfaces show significant wear consistent with extended circulation, and the details of the host coin's reverse design are partially obscured by handling and the effects of the countermarking process. Legends and mintmark elements, where legible, correspond to the host mint of origin. |
