Reverse description An equestrian figure of the Duke of Wellington, in uniform, rides to the right while two Spanish civilians — a woman and a man — stand to the left, garlanding his horse with flowers in a gesture of welcome and celebration. The legend commemorating the entry into Madrid appears in the exergue below a ground line, with the engraver's signature at the left rim.
