| Reverse description | A bold cross with fleur-de-lis terminals divides the reverse into four quarters, each alternately charged with an eagle and a castle tower, referencing the arms of Castile and León. The Guelders cross appears prominently at the top of the design. The encircling Latin legend, beginning with a decorative mullet stop, incorporates the date 1544 at its conclusion, invoking a prayer for divine strength against enemies. |
