| Reverse description | A crowned lion passant guardant, rendered in high relief, is depicted straddling two hemispheric globes representing the Old and New Worlds, with stylized waves indicated below, all contained within a beaded inner circle. The mint mark 'M' for Manila appears flanking the date on either side within the legend. The surrounding circular Latin legend proclaims the protective role of the Spanish Crown over both hemispheres, and the date of issue is incorporated into the legend itself. |
