| Reversbeschreibung | Central device consists of a large cross of Jerusalem (a cross potent with four smaller crosslets), rendered in a bold, slightly stylised hammered style and occupying the majority of the field. Four cinquefoil or rosette ornaments are placed in each of the four quadrants formed by the arms of the cross, acting as decorative fillers characteristic of Portuguese colonial coinage of this era. Small pellets appear at the terminations of the central cross, adding further decorative detail. The entire design is enclosed within a toothed or serrated outer rim. No legend is present on the reverse, the decorative cross composition serving as the sole identifying motif. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
These small silver pieces were struck at Salvador da Bahia under Portuguese colonial authority during a period of acute monetary disorder in Brazil — counterfeit coinage and clipped silver had become so prevalent that the Crown authorized a complete recoinage in 1695, calling in all circulating macutas and cob coinage for reminting. The Bahia facility was one of the primary points of that reform. The "narrow crown" distinction separates this emission from a near-simultaneous variant, a difference attributable to die cutter practice at the colonial mint rather than any policy change.
