| Beschrijving keerzijde | The royal Portuguese arms, featuring the crowned shield of Portugal with the five escutcheons and bezants, is superimposed upon a celestial globe, symbolizing Portugal's maritime dominion. The globe is rendered with clearly delineated meridian and parallel lines, and the arms rest atop a foliate spray at the base. The encircling legend PECUNIA·TOTUM CIRCUMIT·ORBEM ('Money goes around the whole world') runs along the outer border, separated by a dotted inner ring. The composition is bold and heraldic, consistent with the standard reverse type employed on João VI's Brazilian copper coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The golden vintém — so nicknamed despite being struck in copper — was introduced as part of João VI's effort to rationalize Brazil's fractional coinage after the Portuguese court relocated to Rio de Janeiro in 1808. The 37½ reis denomination is arithmetically awkward by any standard, a product of reconciling colonial accounting traditions with Portugal's vintém-based system, where 20 réis equaled one vintém and fractions accumulated through trade necessity rather than rational planning.
KM#317 is known with minor die variations across the 1818–1821 run, reflecting the Casa da Moeda do Brasil's inconsistent production capacity during this transitional period.
