| Reverse description | The crowned quartered royal arms of Spain occupy the center of the field on an ornate shield, displaying alternating castles and lions in the four quarters with the Bourbon fleur-de-lis escutcheon at fess point, surmounted by the royal imperial crown. Flanking the shield are the two Pillars of Hercules, each entwined with a ribboned banner bearing the motto PLUS ULTRA. The circumferential legend • HISPAN • ET IND • REX • arcs around the upper periphery, with the mint mark NG, assayer initial M, and denomination 4R distributed in the lower field. A toothed border frames the entire composition. |
