| Reverse description | The central device depicts a Portuguese armillary sphere — a globe rendered as a grid of meridian and latitude bands with a prominent diagonal band (equinoctial ring) crossing the face — symbolizing Portugal's maritime heritage and overseas empire. The sphere occupies nearly the entire field and is rendered in strong relief. The circular legend PECUNIA·TOTUM·CIRCUMIT·ORBEM (Money Circulates around the World) surrounds the device and runs along the inner border. The design is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a milled outer rim, consistent with the obverse. |
