| Reverse description | The reverse displays the imperial arms of Brazil at center: a shield charged with an armillary sphere over the Portuguese quinas, surmounted by the imperial crown rendered in fine detail with arched bands and fleurons. The shield is flanked by two branches — a coffee branch to the left and a tobacco branch to the right — tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The circular legend IN HOC SIGNO VINCES ('In this sign you shall conquer') arcs around the upper field, referencing the Constantinian motto adopted by the Brazilian Empire, with the denomination '320 R' completing the design. |
