| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse features a crowned abbreviated royal shield of Fernando VI, quartered with the castles of Castile and lions of León, with the Bourbon escutcheon at center. Surrounding the shield is the Latin motto NOMINA MAGNA SEQUOR (I follow great names). The mintmark of the colonial Popayán mint (PN) and the assayer's initials appear in the field, as on the original 1759 prototype. The crowned M mintmark of the Royal Mint of Spain and the denomination 50 EURO are added as identifying marks of the modern commemorative issue. |

This piece reproduces the 1 Escudo struck at Madrid in the final year of Fernando VI's reign — he died in August 1759, childless and by most accounts broken by grief following the death of his wife, Bárbara de Braganza, three months prior. The original was among the last gold coinage authorized under his name before Carlos III inherited the Spanish throne.
The Real Casa de la Moneda issued this restrike as part of a longer commemorative program revisiting historically significant Spanish gold types. The choice of 1759 specifically anchors the piece to a dynastic rupture rather than a triumph.
