| Reverse description | Portuguese royal shield of arms displayed in the field, featuring the quinas (five escutcheons arranged in a cross) characteristic of the medieval Portuguese coat of arms. Three pellets or bezants are disposed around the shield in the field. The design is executed in a bold, simplified hammered style with minimal relief, typical of base copper issues of the reign of João II. The flan is irregular and the surfaces show heavy wear, consistent with the denomination's role as a low-value everyday circulation piece. |
