| Obverse description | Olive-green intaglio and offset polychrome print. The central vignette presents a formal portrait of Dom Pedro I (Pedro de Alcântara Francisco António João Carlos Xavier de Paula Miguel Rafael Joaquim José Gonzaga Pascoal Cipriano Serafim) set within an ornate decorated frame, flanked on both sides by the denomination numeral 200. The composition is typical of the classical engraved portrait style employed by Thomas De La Rue for mid-twentieth-century Brazilian issues. |
