| Obverse description | Central field displays the crowned Portuguese royal arms, featuring the characteristic escutcheon with five bezants arranged in a cross on a shield, flanked by two elaborate scrolled supporters and surmounted by a royal crown of ornate design. The shield is rendered with fine hatching to indicate tinctures. The circular legend surrounds the central device along the rim, separated from the field by a milled border. |
