| Reverse description | The quartered royal arms of Spain, comprising the castles of Castile and lions of León, the chains of Navarre, and the pomegranate of Granada, displayed on an ornate shield surmounted by the royal crown. The denomination numeral '8' appears to the left of the shield and the mint mark 'S' to the right. The shield is encircled by the collar and pendant badge of the Order of the Golden Fleece, rendered as a decorative chain of flints and steels. A surrounding Latin legend occupies the rim, with the assayer initials and mint mark at the base, the whole framed by a milled border. |
