| Obverse description | The crowned Portuguese royal arms occupy the central field, displaying the escutcheon with the traditional quinas arrangement surmounted by an ornate royal crown. Decorative foliate and tassel ornaments flank the shield on either side. The encircling legend reads JOSEPHUS·I·D·G·REX·P·ET·D·GUINEÆ·, identifying King José I of Portugal by his Latin royal titles. The whole design is contained within a milled border. The style is consistent with mid-18th century Portuguese colonial coinage. |
