| Obverse description | The obverse features a highly polished mirror field with a decorative quill feather motif in the upper portion, rendered in fine relief. The denomination '5 REAIS' is prominently displayed in the right field in a bold upright typeface. The remaining field is filled with calligraphic script inscriptions in an ornate cursive style, each accompanied by a small star and a founding date, commemorating five Brazilian institutions established by the Portuguese Royal Family: Justiça Militar da União (1 de abril), Imprensa Nacional (13 de maio), Jardim Botânico (13 de junho), Ministério da Fazenda (28 de junho), and Banco do Brasil (12 de outubro). The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
