| Reverse description | The reverse displays the royal arms of Portugal within a shield, featuring the characteristic quintas (five escutcheons arranged in cross formation) associated with Manueline heraldic tradition. The shield is set within a beaded inner circle, enclosed by a circular Latin legend identical to the obverse. The hammered execution results in a somewhat irregular and flat relief, consistent with the low-denomination copper coinage of Manuel I's reign. |
