| Obverse description | Central device depicting an armillary sphere rendered in relief, showing the characteristic banded globe intersected by diagonal bands representing the ecliptic and equatorial rings. The sphere is positioned prominently in the field, with the surrounding circular legend separated from the central device by a raised border. The entire composition reflects the Portuguese colonial iconographic tradition of the armillary sphere as a royal symbol. |
