| Reverse description | The central field features a large armillary sphere with clearly rendered meridian rings, parallels, and ecliptic band, rendered in bold relief and occupying the majority of the die area. Superimposed over the sphere is the cross of the Order of Christ — a broad, plain-armed cross pattée — whose arms extend to the periphery of the coin, dividing the surrounding legend into four segments. The circumferential inscription SVBQ. SIGN. NATA. STAB., meaning 'Born under a steady sign,' is distributed between the arms of the cross, separated by pellet stops. The entire design is contained within a reeded border. |
