| Obverse description | Central crowned Portuguese royal shield of arms within a decorated oval cartouche, displaying the five escutcheons with bezants in saltire and the red border with castles. The letter 'A' appears to the upper left of the shield, and an 'Açor' (goshawk) countermark is applied to the right of the shield. The peripheral legend in Latin runs along the coin's circumference within a beaded border. |
