| Reverse description | The reverse bears a left-facing portrait bust of Pedro Álvares Cabral, the Portuguese navigator credited with the discovery of Brazil in 1500, depicted wearing a wide-brimmed hat and period attire with a full beard, rendered in high relief. To the right of the portrait, a stylized outline map of the Brazilian coastline is shown, with the inscription PORTO SEGURO marked at the site of Cabral's first landfall, accompanied by a small anchor symbol. The legend PEDRO ALVARES CABRAL arcs along the upper rim, and BRASIL 1500 is inscribed in the lower field, commemorating the quincentenary of the discovery. |
