| Reverse description | At center, a boldly rendered armillary sphere — the emblematic device of the Portuguese crown and its overseas dominions — is depicted with horizontal parallels and meridian bands, resting on a support, without mintmark. The circular Latin legend surrounds the central device and is contained within a toothed or beaded outer border. The armillary sphere, a symbol of Portuguese maritime empire and royal authority, is rendered in high relief consistent with the milled copper coinage of José I's reign. |
