| Obverse description | Central field displays the large numeral '40' denoting the face value, surrounded by an array of floral and rosette ornaments scattered across the field. A wreath of laurel branches frames the central design on both sides, tied at the base. The peripheral legend, reading PETRUS I D.G. CONST. IMP. ET PERP. BRAS. DEF., encircles the entire design, with the date and mint mark (e.g. 1824·C) positioned along the lower arc between the wreath terminals. The overall design is characteristic of the early imperial Brazilian coinage issued under Emperor Pedro I. |
