| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of João VI facing right, rendered in high relief with finely detailed hair and ribbon. The legend IOANNES VI D G PORT BRASIL ET ALG REX encircles the effigy, reading from lower left around the periphery. The date appears in the lower field beneath the bust. The portrait reflects the neoclassical style typical of early 19th-century Portuguese royal coinage. |
