正面描述	Crowned Portuguese royal arms at center, displaying the quartered shield with castles and bezants within a decorative frame, surmounted by an ornate royal crown. The heraldic device occupies the majority of the field. A circular legend reading MARIA·II·DEI·GRATIA surrounds the arms, inscribed along the coin's periphery in Roman capitals.

附加信息	The Azores obtained dedicated copper coinage in this period partly because metropolitan Portuguese copper rarely reached the islands in sufficient quantity — the Atlantic transit made small-denomination supply chronically unreliable. This London-struck issue was produced under the regency authority of Maria II while she was still a minor, her father Pedro IV having abdicated the Portuguese throne in her favor in 1826 before returning to Brazil. The political situation was anything but settled; her uncle Miguel would seize power in 1828 and declare himself absolute king, meaning coins struck in Maria's name during this window carry the authority of a monarch actively being deposed.
