| Obverse description | Host coin obverse retains the original design of the Brazilian 6,400 Reis (KM#199.2), featuring the elaborate Portuguese royal arms displayed on an ornate baroque cartouche surmounted by a royal crown, flanked by decorative scrollwork. The applied Guadeloupean countermark, struck in the field, bears the numeral '22' accompanied by a small bearded human face, authenticating the coin's revalued denomination for local colonial circulation. The milled edge of the host coin remains intact and visible. |
