| Obverse description | Central field features the crowned Portuguese royal arms — a quartered shield bearing the five quinas of Portugal and the castle of the Algarve — set within a plain circular frame and surmounted by a royal crown rendered in high relief. The denomination 400 and the date 1755 flank the shield to the left and right respectively, positioned within the field. The peripheral legend reads IOSEPHUS I D G P REX ET D AF OR, identifying King José I as King of Portugal and Lord of Africa and the Orient, rendered in Latin capitals separated by stops. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a milled outer edge. |
