The date appears below the numeral in the lower field. Two small quatrefoil ornaments flank the denomination in the field. The entire central device is enclosed within a beaded inner circle, beyond which a circular Latin legend runs along the periphery, reading JOSEPHUS.I.D.G.P.ET.BRASIL.REX, identifying King José I of Portugal and Brazil by the Grace of God. |
