Reverse description The abbreviated legend SUBQ SIGN. NATA STAB. runs along the periphery, a contraction of the full motto SUBQUO SIGNO NATA STABILI (Under this sign it was born and will remain). At center, the Portuguese royal coat of arms, featuring the traditional quinas shield, is superimposed upon an armillary sphere, the latter serving as a dynastic symbol of Portuguese maritime heritage and sovereignty over Brazil. The heraldic design is rendered with fine engraving detail consistent with early 19th-century colonial minting standards.
