| Reverse description | Crowned Spanish royal shield at centre, flanked by the two Pillars of Hercules with abbreviated PLUS ULTRA banderoles, all rendered in a rough, provincial style typical of wartime emergency issues. The shield displays the quartered arms of Castile and León. The circumferential legend MONEDA PROVISIONAL DE ZACATECAS encircles the design, attesting to the coin's status as a provisional issue struck during the Mexican War of Independence to sustain Royalist finances. |
