| Obverse description | Blue intaglio on a gold guilloche underprint, with two standing allegorical female figures positioned at the left and right margins flanking the central composition. The Portuguese Coat of Arms occupies the bottom centre, while the plate designation 'Chapa 8.m' is printed within the design. The date and the authorising signatures of the Director and Governor appear below the central vignette, with the denomination stated in both text and the legend 'OURO' affirming gold-equivalent value. |
