| Obverse description | The crowned Portuguese royal arms occupy the central field, surmounted by a royal crown with four or five arches depending on the die variety. The shield displays the traditional Portuguese quartered arms with the quinas and the border of castles. The denomination 160 and the date are placed flanking the crowned shield, accompanied by small floral ornaments. A circular Latin legend reading IOANNES.V.D.G.PORT.REX.ET.BRAS.D. runs around the periphery, identifying the issuing monarch as João V, King of Portugal and Brazil. |
