| Obverse description | A large, finely detailed Chinese junk under full sail occupies the central field, its ribbed battened sails rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished background. The vessel is depicted in three-quarter view with its hull showing decorative planking at the waterline. The legend MACAU arcs along the upper border in bold capital letters, flanked on either side by Portuguese Order of Christ cross ornaments. The denomination 500 PATACAS curves along the lower border in matching bold capitals. |
