Obverse description The obverse displays the Brazilian national coat of arms prominently in the centre of the field, featuring a five-pointed star overlaid on a stylised celestial sphere, surrounded by a wreath of coffee and tobacco branches tied at the base with a ribbon. The central star bears the Southern Cross constellation rendered in relief within a circular medallion. The circular legend REPÚBLICA DOS ESTADOS UNIDOS DO BRASIL runs along the periphery in raised Latin lettering, engraved in the style associated with Orlando Moutinho Maia.
