| Obverse description | Laureate and draped bust of King João V facing right, occupying the central field. The date appears below the bust in two lines. The surrounding legend reads IOANNES.V.R.P. in Latin characters, partially encircling the effigy within a beaded border. The portrait displays the characteristic baroque style of Portuguese colonial coinage struck at Goa, with rough hammered surfaces consistent with the hand-struck technique. |
