| Reverse description | The quartered Royal Arms of Spain, featuring castles and lions in alternating quarters with an inescutcheon bearing the Bourbon fleur-de-lis, surmounted by a royal crown. The shield is flanked on either side by the Pillars of Hercules, each bearing a banner inscribed PLUS, symbolizing the Spanish dominions beyond the seas. The denomination mark 4R and the assayer's initials appear to the left of the left pillar, while the mint mark B (Potosí) appears below. The circumferential legend ·HISPAN·ET IND·REX· encircles the design within a toothed border. |
