Reverse description	Armillary sphere depicted centrally, rendered in a bold and simplified style with intersecting lines forming the globe's meridian and latitude bands, and a diagonal band representing the ecliptic or equator crossing the sphere. The design is enclosed within an irregular raised rim consistent with hammered fabric. The armillary sphere was a principal emblem of the Portuguese Empire, widely employed on colonial coinage of this period.
