| Reverse description | The reverse presents a richly detailed composition dominated by a reclining bearded figure, widely interpreted as an aged reader absorbed in an open book, occupying the right portion of the field. To the left, the iconic mounted figure of Don Quixote in full armour, lance raised, accompanied by the rotund Sancho Panza on his donkey, rises above a foreground of stacked books and a lance or sword hilt. The denomination 50 EURO appears in the upper central field. The curved legend EL INGENIOSO HIDALGO DON QUIJOTE DE LA MANCHA runs along the upper periphery, and the Madrid Mint mark (crowned M) is visible in the lower left field. |
