Reverse description The reverse features a portrait effigy of Christopher Columbus as the central design element, rendered in high relief. In the upper portion, a cameo displays the conjoined or juxtaposed busts of the Catholic Monarchs, Ferdinand II of Aragon and Isabella I of Castile, serving as a royal imprimatur to the commemorative theme. The lower field is overlaid with a cartographic rendering of part of Central America, evoking the geographical discoveries of Columbus. The denomination, explorer's name in Spanish, and the commemorative dates marking the 500th anniversary of Columbus's death are inscribed as the principal legend, along with the Madrid mint mark.
