Puzzle Description:

English: "Further Beyond." This was the motto of Charles V, the Holy Roman Emperor in the 16th century, and the first King of Spain. His realm spanned nearly four million square kilometers across Europe, the Far East, and the Americas. This crown is part of the coat of arms of Spain.

From wiki:

This motto is closely associated with the Pillars of Hercules, which according to Greek mythology were built by Hercules, near the Straits of Gibraltar, marking the edge of the then known world. According to mythology the pillars bore the warning Nec plus ultra (also Non plus ultra, "nothing further beyond"), serving as a warning to sailors and navigators to go no further.

Teresa, possibly the prettiest puzzle I've ever seen on webpbn! (...and of course I'm partial to my own...lol!) Seriously, I love your style and I always get excited when there's a new 'Teresa' puzzle to solve! This time you've outdone yourself... Thank you!!

Thanks, bugaboo.

Tonia, I absolutely love every single one of your puzzles, and they are all high quality. So your compliment means a lot. Since you have only created three so far this year, I'm hoping I'll get to solve a few more of yours soon. Please? :-)

Pues de momento si, pero un poco aburrido. Gracias. ¿En su zona de USA hay mucha infección del virus?

En mi estado, Arizona, no es tan malo como en otros lugares, pero aún no hemos alcanzado su punto máximo.

Estoy usando el traductor de Google. ¿Puedes decir que realmente no hablo español?

Hola Teresa. Maravilloso tu puzzle como siempre. Espero que estés muy bien. Lo que puedo decir además es que el traductor de Google habla muy bien español.
#18: Teresa K (fasstar) on Nov 14, 2020

Muchas gracias, Claudia.

Not done yet. I know it's gonna be a crown, but until I get the center filled in, it looks like a sad monkey. hehe
I do like symmetry.

He vuelto a hacer este puzzle que hace tres años ya hice y me pareció maravilloso. Y lo he hecho para recordar que los españoles no hicieron caso de las columnas de Hércules ni de los dichos del "no más allá" y se fueron mar adentro a descubrir la maravillosa América.

Yo soy español y te he descubierto a tí y a tus maravillosos puzzles.

Espero verte pronto por aquí.
