| Obverse description | Draped bust of Queen Maria I facing right, her hair elaborately dressed and adorned with a distinctive lace headdress veil, pearl necklace, and ornate ribbons, rendered in fine baroque style. The truncation of the bust is visible at the lower field, with the date and mint mark (e.g. 1793·R·) inscribed in the exergue below. The circular Latin legend reads MARIA·I·D·G·PORT·ET·ALG·REGINA, distributed around the periphery. The portrait is executed with high relief and exceptional detail, characteristic of late 18th-century Portuguese colonial coinage. A toothed border frames the entire design. |
