| Reverse description | The reverse features a finely detailed depiction of two emperor penguins standing together in the foreground, symbolising the fauna encountered during the passage through the strait later known as the Strait of Magellan. To the right, a period caravel under full sail is rendered in relief, evoking the vessels of Magellan's fleet. The legend 'FERNÃO • DE • MAGALHÃES' arcs across the upper field, with 'ESTREITO 1520' inscribed in the lower right. The engraver's signature 'CASA DA MOEDA – L. F. ABREU' appears in small letters along the lower left rim. |
