| Reverse description | Central device depicts a large armillary sphere — a symbol of Portuguese maritime exploration and sovereignty — rendered in bold relief with clearly defined meridian and latitude bands. Superimposed over the sphere is a large capital letter 'N' formed by crossed bands, a mintmark or control device associated with colonial issues. The abbreviated Latin motto SVBQ SIGN NATA STAB is divided among the four quadrants of the field, reading 'Sub hoc signo nata stabit' (Born under this sign it shall stand). The design is enclosed within a beaded border, and the field is plain save for the central device and surrounding legend segments. |
