| Reverse description | Central design of the host Spanish colonial 8 Reales showing the crowned royal arms of Castile and León — quartered shield with castle and lion — flanked by the Pillars of Hercules, each bearing a scroll inscribed PLUS ULTRA. A terrestrial globe device, applied as a second Portuguese counterstamp validating the coin for Brazilian circulation, is struck over the lower central portion of the field. The peripheral legend reads 8R.F.I.HISPAN.ET.IND.REX, with the mint mark and assayer initials of the host coin visible at the upper left. |
