| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field bears the Portuguese royal shield — a quartered escutcheon displaying the five quinas and the castle bordure — surmounted by a narrow royal crown. To the left of the shield appears the denomination numeral '80' and the date, while a single heraldic flower (flor-de-lis) is positioned in the field. The circumferential legend, rendered in Latin capital letters separated by pellets, reads the royal titulature of King Pedro II of Portugal. The whole design is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a reeded outer rim. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The central device consists of a large armillary sphere rendered in bold relief, its intersecting rings and equatorial band clearly articulated, set against a plain field. Superimposed over the sphere is the cross of the Order of Christ, with its characteristic broader inner cross in relief. The circumferential legend in Latin capital letters, separated by interpuncts, surrounds the entire design. The coin is enclosed within a beaded inner border and a reeded outer rim. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Bahia mint operated under persistent pressure from Portuguese Crown administrators who viewed Brazilian silver output as chronically insufficient relative to colonial demand. This narrow crown variety — distinguished from the wider crown type by subtle die characteristics cataloged in Bentes — reflects a transitional minting period before the discovery of Minas Gerais gold fundamentally redirected the colony's monetary priorities after 1698. The Bahia operation was the sole authorized American mint for the Portuguese empire at this moment.
Three-year production windows for colonial silver types often mask considerable die variation within a single year's output.
