| Reverse description | The reverse features a boldly rendered armillary sphere at center, depicted in a globular grid pattern with a prominent diagonal band, symbolizing Portuguese maritime dominance and exploration. The sphere occupies nearly the full inner field, with no mintmark present. The circumferential legend PECVNIA.TOTVM.CIRCVMIT.ORBEM is inscribed within the outer beaded border, separated by small ornamental stops. The overall design reflects the standard reverse type employed at the Lisbon Mint for Brazilian colonial copper coinage under João V. |
