| Obverse description | The obverse displays the Portuguese royal arms — a crowned shield bearing the quinas (five escutcheons) and castles — centrally positioned in the field, surmounted by the royal crown. A small oval countermark depicting a crowned 'G.P.' monogram (the Azores countermark applied in 1887) is struck over the lower portion of the central shield. The denomination '640' appears to the left of the shield and the date to the right, with the circular legend reading 'MARIA I D G PORTUGALIE BRASILIAEQUE PRINCEPS' around the periphery, separated by pellets. |
