| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse presents a dynamic equestrian composition depicting the two central figures of Cervantes's novel: Don Quixote de la Mancha astride his gaunt horse Rocinante, and his faithful squire Sancho Panza mounted on his donkey. The figures are rendered in detailed relief, capturing the contrasting characters of the idealistic knight and his pragmatic companion. The legend DON QUIJOTE DE LA MANCHA, SANCHO PANZA is inscribed prominently, accompanied by the mint mark M and the denomination 400 EURO. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Issued on the 400th anniversary of the publication of Cervantes' novel — the first part appeared in Madrid in January 1605 — this coin was part of Spain's broader commemorative program marking the quadricentennial. The novel is widely credited as the first modern European novel, and the anniversary prompted cultural events across the Spanish-speaking world, with the Royal Spanish Academy releasing a special commemorative edition of the text that same year.
