| Obverse description | Armored bust of Grand Master Antonio Manoel de Vilhena facing right, wearing a elaborate long curled periwig and plate armor with decorative pauldron visible at the left shoulder, all set within a raised inner circle. The surrounding legend reads F·D·AN: MANOEL EL DE VILHEN A, with the title abbreviation F·D· (Frater et Dominus) preceding the Grand Master's name. The finely engraved portrait displays strong Baroque stylistic qualities, with the reeded border of the coin visible at the outer edge. |
