| Obverse description | The central field bears the crowned Portuguese royal arms, depicting the quartered shield with the traditional escutcheons of Portugal, surmounted by an elaborate royal crown with ornamental detailing. The shield is rendered in high relief against a plain field. A circular Latin legend surrounds the central device, running along the periphery between two milled borders. The overall design reflects the neoclassical engraving style characteristic of Portuguese colonial coinage of the early 19th century. |
