| Reverse description | Central device depicting a Portuguese armillary sphere, the iconic emblem of King Manuel I of Portugal, rendered with multiple intersecting rings and a central axis, enclosed within a plain inner circle. The border is composed of a continuous beaded ring, matching the obverse. The armillary sphere, a personal badge of Manuel I, symbolizes Portuguese maritime exploration and empire. No inscriptions or legends appear on this face. The hammered surface displays the characteristic irregularity of the Goa Mint's earliest colonial gold coinage. |
