| Reverse description | A bold cross pattée occupies the central field, dividing the reverse into four quadrants. The date digits are distributed across the quadrants flanking the cross, reading 1669 (or the respective year of issue for each variety), a layout typical of Portuguese colonial hammered coinage from Goa. The cross arms are broad and clearly defined, consistent with the hammered technique. A beaded inner circle borders the design, with a plain outer rim completing the coin's periphery. The composition and arrangement follow the established typology of the Xerafim series struck under Prince Pedro as regent. |
