Obverse description A seated allegorical female figure in classical robes holds aloft a laurel wreath in her right hand, with a caduceus resting against her left shoulder; at her feet lie a ship's anchor and a cannon ball. In the background, the fortified harbour wall and lighthouse of Cadiz are depicted in relief. To the right, a heraldic shield bears a figural device. The engraver's signature A. GALVIEN appears in the lower exergue, with the date 1887 and flanking stars below, and the circular legend around the border.
