| Reverse description | The quartered royal arms of Spain — displaying the castles of Castile, lions of León, fleurs-de-lis of the Bourbon dynasty, and the chain of Granada — surmounted by a large ornate royal crown, the whole shield encircled by the collar of the Order of the Golden Fleece with the suspended fleece pendant at the base. The denomination numeral 8 appears to the left of the shield and the assayer initial S to the right, with the mint mark PTS (Potosí) and assayer PR flanking the Golden Fleece at the bottom. The surrounding legend IN · UTROQ · FELIX · · AUSPICE · DEO · runs along the periphery within a toothed milled border. |
