| Reverse description | A terrestrial globe in armillary sphere style dominates the center of the field, with a network of meridian and parallel lines clearly delineated in relief. The globe is surmounted by a cross and rests upon a small ornamental support at the base, with the mint mark below. The surrounding circular legend in Latin script reads PECUNIA·TOTUM CIRCUMIT·ORBEM, affirming the universal circulation of coinage. The entire design is enclosed within a milled border, consistent with Portuguese colonial copper coinage of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. |
