| Beschrijving keerzijde | Central device depicts two large hemispheric globes crowned by a single royal crown, representing the Old and New Worlds of the Spanish Empire, resting upon stylized ocean waves. The Pillars of Hercules, each topped with its own crown and entwined with a ribbon or banner, flank the globes on either side, referencing the classical non plus ultra motto. The mint mark NR and assayer initial Ro appear at lower left and lower right respectively, adjacent to the base of the pillars. The date 1759 is inscribed in the lower exergue between rosette stops, while the circular Latin legend VTRAQUE VNUM — meaning 'both as one' — runs around the upper periphery, symbolizing the unity of the Spanish hemispheres. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Fernando VI died in August 1759 after a prolonged mental collapse following the death of his wife Barbara de Braganza — he left no heir, passing the crown to his half-brother Carlos III. Coins struck in his name that same year, particularly from colonial mints, represent the tail end of a dying reign rather than active royal policy. Bogotá was still producing macuquina-style cobs alongside milled coinage in this period, and administrative lag meant Fernando's name continued appearing on dies well after news of his death reached New Granada.
