Reverse description A boldly rendered armillary sphere occupies the central field, its interlocking celestial rings and equatorial band depicted in a highly stylised, almost geometric fashion typical of Portuguese colonial copper issues. No mintmark appears on this side. The circumferential Latin legend, separated by ornamental stops, encircles the sphere within the coin's border.
