| Obverse description | Bare-headed effigy of King Carlos I facing right, with short curly hair rendered in fine detail. The legend CARLOS I REI DE PORTUGAL arcs around the upper periphery, while the date 1895 appears in the lower field below the truncation. The engraver's signature ALVES is inscribed near the lower truncation of the bust. A beaded border frames the design. The portrait is rendered in a neoclassical academic style typical of late 19th-century Portuguese coinage. |
