正面描述 The obverse of the host coin displays the Portuguese royal arms — a crowned shield bearing the armillary sphere and the five quinas arranged in a cross — centrally positioned in the field, surmounted by a royal crown. A beaded inner border frames the central device, and a circular legend in Latin runs along the outer rim between the beaded border and the coin's edge. The legend reads JOSEPHUS.I.D.G REX.P.ET.D.GUINE, identifying King José I of Portugal by the Grace of God. Applied over the central design is the Maria II countermark: a small crowned Portuguese shield, punched in intaglio, used in 1837 to revalue and authenticate the host coin for continued circulation in Angola.

附加信息

When Maria II assumed the Portuguese throne following the Liberal Wars, Angola's existing copper coinage — struck under her predecessor José — required official revalidation. Rather than recall and remelt the stock, Lisbon authorized a countermarking program in 1837: a crowned shield punched directly onto circulating 1 Macuta pieces to double their face value and signal the new reign's authority. The logistics of running such a program across colonial supply chains meant that application quality varied considerably, and Gomes catalogs at least four recognized punch varieties for this type alone.
