| Reverse description | The reverse displays the crowned globes-and-pillars design of the Spanish colonial 8 Reales, with two crowned hemispheres flanked by the Pillars of Hercules, all surrounding the large octagonal central perforation. The circumferential legend HISPAN ET IND REX is visible around the outer field, along with the mint mark and assayer initials partially legible. The crown above the central device is prominently rendered, with fine detail preserved in the annular field despite the alteration. |
