| Reverse description | The reverse features a dignified portrait bust of Pedro Álvares Cabral, the Portuguese navigator who commanded the 1500 expedition from Lisbon to Brazil and onward to India, positioned prominently in the left to central field. To the right, a cartographic depiction of the Brazilian coastline is rendered, with the location of Porto Seguro — where Cabral's fleet made its historic landfall — indicated on the map. The legend 'PEDRO ALVARES CABRAL' arcs across the upper field, while 'PORTO SEGURO BRASIL 1500' appears in the lower or right field, commemorating the quincentennial of the discovery. |
