An ornate architectural frame with flanking pilasters and scrollwork supports a large arched ribbon banner inscribed with the district name, within which the municipal coat of arms — crowned and bearing a fish and a castle with tree — is placed at centre. Two facsimile signatures appear below the arms, attributed to the Treasurer and the President of the Municipal Commission respectively, with their titles printed above. The denomination "VALE 10 Cent.vos" is set in a cartouche along the lower margin. Printer's imprints "RLONSO" and "H. GRIS & Cª LISBOA" appear at the lower left and right corners. |

The vignette is enclosed within an ornamental border of interlocking geometric and scroll motifs. The authority name and denomination appear in a bold black banner at the top, while the authorising deliberation date is inscribed in cartouches at the upper corners. |
