正面描述 Central field bears the crowned Portuguese royal arms — a shield quartered with the quinas (five escutcheons arranged in cross) and the castles of the border — surmounted by a royal crown of elaborate form. The shield is flanked by decorative elements and set within a plain inner circle. The surrounding legend in Latin reads +IOAnIS:S€CUNDO:REGIS:P, identifying the issuing monarch João II of Portugal. The entire design is executed in the flat, bold relief characteristic of late medieval Iberian hammered gold coinage.

背面描述 Central device features a bold Greek cross pattée with flared terminals, each arm terminating at the inner circle, with small ornamental elements — likely bezants or pellets — at the angles between the arms. The cross is enclosed within a plain inner circle. The circumferential legend in Latin reads +IOAnIS:S€CUNDO:REGIS:PO, continuing the royal title of João II. The design follows the standard cruzado type introduced in Portugal in the late fifteenth century, with the cross motif evoking the crusading symbolism for which the denomination was named.

附加信息

João II's cruzado continued the denomination his father Afonso V had established in 1457, itself modeled on the Burgundian rider and tied explicitly to Portugal's crusading ambitions in North Africa. When João II came to power in 1481, he inherited both the coin and the rhetoric — but redirected the maritime energy southward along the African coast rather than toward Ceuta and Tangier. The first-type cruzado predates the rounding of the Cape of Good Hope by seven years, meaning these coins were circulating at precisely the moment Diogo Cão was planting stone padrões on the Congolese coast.
