| Obverse description | The coat of arms of the Republic of Brazil occupies the central field, depicting a five-pointed star set within a radiating sunburst, overlaid by a coffee branch on the left and a tobacco branch on the right, tied at the base with a ribbon bearing the inscription '15 DE NOVEMBRO DE 1889 ESTADOS UNIDOS DO BRAZIL'. A circular band at the centre of the star contains a starry celestial sphere. The peripheral legend 'REPUBLICA DOS ESTADOS UNIDOS DO BRAZIL' arcs around the upper field, and the mint year appears in the lower field flanked by two small stars, all within a toothed border. |
