| Obverse lettering | IOANNES.V.D.G.PORT.ET.ALG.REX R 1727 (Translation: João V, by the Grace of God, King of Portugal and Algarves.) |
| Reverse description | The full royal arms of Portugal set within an ornate Baroque cartouche, displaying the central escutcheon bearing five bezant-laden quinas arranged in a cross pattern, bordered by the castles of the bordure. The shield is flanked by elaborate acanthus scroll mantling and surmounted by a detailed royal crown with fleurs-de-lis and arches. The design fills the field almost entirely, with no peripheral legend, and the coin's milled border frames the composition. |
