| Reverse description | The reverse displays an armillary sphere — symbol of the Portuguese overseas dominions — encircled by a decorative sash or ribbon tied at the base with a bow, forming a wreath-like frame. A cross pattée is prominent within the design. The mint mark letter appears in the field, identifying the issuing mint: B for Bahia (KM#256.1), R for Rio de Janeiro (KM#256.2), or M for Vila Rica (KM#256.3). The circular Latin legend SUBQ·SIGN·NATA STAB surrounds the composition, referring to the motto of the Portuguese royal house. |
