| Reverse description | The quartered arms of Spain — displaying castles and lions with a central escutcheon bearing the fleurs-de-lis of the Bourbon dynasty — are surmounted by a royal crown. The shield is flanked on either side by the Pillars of Hercules, each wound with a scroll bearing the PLUS ULTRA motto. The circular legend reads • HISPAN • ET IND • REX • NG • 8R • M •, with the mint mark NG and assayer initial M flanking the denomination. A toothed border encloses the entire design. |
