| Reverse description | Central device consists of the Portuguese royal arms displaying the characteristic 'straight zones' (faixas direitas) design associated with colonial Brazilian coinage of the Minas Gerais province issue — a horizontally striped oval escutcheon traversed by two diagonal sword-like elements, set within a border. The circular Latin legend 'SVBQ. SIGN. NATA. STAB.' (Sub quod signum nata stabilita — 'Born under a steady sign') encircles the central arms, reading around the full perimeter of the field. The design is enclosed by a finely reeded outer rim. |
