| Reverse description | The reverse retains the original design of the host Spanish colonial 8 Reales, featuring the crowned royal arms of Castile and León flanked by the Pillars of Hercules with the PLUS VLTRA scrolls, all within a partial circular Latin legend. The strike of the countermarks has caused some distortion to the underlying design, and wear from circulation has further softened the original relief. The mint mark, assayer initials, and denomination indicators remain partially visible in the field. |
