| Obverse description | Central device consisting of the Portuguese royal shield — a pointed escutcheon bearing the five quinas (inescutcheons) arranged in a cross pattern — set within a plain inner circle surrounded by a beaded border. The shield is rendered in a bold, archaic Gothic style characteristic of late 14th-century hammered coinage. The circumferential legend in uncial Latin letters reads +IhnS D G REX PO ALG, identifying João I as king of Portugal and the Algarve, and is separated from the central device by the beaded ring. |
