| Obverse description | The Brazilian national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting a five-pointed star charged with a celestial globe bearing the Southern Cross constellation, encircled by a wreath of coffee and tobacco branches, and surmounted by a radiant star. A ribbon at the base of the shield bears the legend '15 DE NOVEMBRO DE 1889' and 'ESTADOS UNIDOS DO BRASIL'. The denomination '200 RÉIS' appears prominently in the upper field above the arms, flanked by the circular legend 'REPUBLICA DOS ESTADOS UNIDOS DO' and 'BRASIL' at the base, with the Roman numeral date 'MCMI' (1901) below the shield. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |

| Reverse description | Draped bust of Liberty facing right, her hair swept up and pinned, wearing a diadem inscribed 'LIBERT' across the brow, the legend presumably continuing as LIBERTÉ or LIBERTY but truncated by the coin's design. The engraver's initial 'P' (for Paulin Tasset) appears at the base of the bust. A circle of 21 five-pointed stars surrounds the effigy, and the entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
