| Reverse description | Crowned quartered shield of the Spanish royal arms occupying the central field, with the denomination indicator 'R' visible to the right of the shield. The quarters display the castles of Castile and the lions of León in alternating arrangement, with a central roundel. The crown surmounting the shield is depicted in a simplified, stylized form consistent with the primitive engraving standards of this colonial emergency issue. The overall design is characteristically crude and the strike uneven due to the hand-hammered cob technique employed at the Santo Domingo mint. |
