Reverse description The reverse presents the crowned Royal Arms of Spain — the quartered shield bearing the castles of Castile and the lions of León, surmounted by a large ornate royal crown — flanked by the crowned Pillars of Hercules with the motto PLUS VLTRA on their respective banners. The circular legend reads • HISPAN • ET IND • REX •, identifying the monarch as King of Spain and the Indies. The assayer initials R•P, the denomination 8R, and the mintmark Ch (for Mexico City) appear in the fields. A toothed inner border frames the entire composition.
