Beschrijving keerzijde Central device consists of a plain cross pattée extending to the inner beaded circle, dividing the field into four equal quadrants. A small annulet or point appears in one quadrant as a mint or die-variety mark. The cross is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, outside of which the Latin legend FERNANDVS REX PORTVG runs around the full periphery. The overall design follows the tornês typology inherited from French and Iberian monetary traditions, executed in the hammered technique typical of the Lisbon mint under Fernando I.

Aanvullende informatie

Fernando I struck this issue during the opening years of his reign, a period consumed almost entirely by the First Fernandine War against Castile — a conflict he provoked by pressing his claim to the Castilian throne following the death of Pedro I. War finance put relentless pressure on the Portuguese mint, and the billon coinage of this reign shows it: successive debasements drove silver content downward across Fernando's monetary issues, making the earlier strikes like this one marginally more honest than what followed.
