Reverse description Central device featuring the Portuguese royal arms arranged in a cross formation, with five escutcheons (quinas) each charged with five bezants, set within a circular inner border. The arrangement of the shields forms the characteristic Portuguese cross of quinas, a heraldic emblem central to João I's coinage. A surrounding circular legend in uncial Latin reads PORTVGALIE:ET:ALG, an abbreviated reference to the royal titles of Portugal and the Algarve. The overall composition is enclosed within a beaded or plain inner circle, with the hammered fabric producing a characteristic irregular flan edge.
