| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a scene of Columbus's landing, showing a robed figure presenting a large banner bearing a heraldic coat of arms to a group of standing indigenous figures. Additional armoured Spanish soldiers flank the scene on both sides. A compass rose or navigational wheel symbol is shown in the exergue between the dates. The engraver's signature P. VINCZE appears in the right field. |
