Reverse description The reverse features a large, boldly struck cross of the Order of Christ — a plain cross potent — occupying the majority of the field, divided into four quadrants and enclosed within a beaded circular border. The cross is rendered in characteristic hammered style with slightly irregular geometry. A Latin legend encircles the central device, bearing the Constantinian motto attributed to the victory of the cross. The design is typical of Portuguese gold coinage of the period, reflecting the nation's deep association with the Order of Christ and its maritime and military heritage.
