| Beschrijving keerzijde | A large Cross of the Order of Christ dominates the central field, rendered in the characteristic pattée form associated with Portuguese imperial coinage. Decorative rosettes are placed in each of the four corners formed by the arms of the cross. The peripheral Latin legend IN HOC SIGNO VINCES encircles the design, referencing the Constantinian motto adopted by the Order of Christ. The overall composition is clean and heraldic, consistent with the milled silver coinage of the Joannine Regency period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
João assumed the role of Prince Regent in 1799 following the incapacitation of his mother, Queen Maria I, whose mental deterioration had rendered her unable to govern. The cruzado novo occupied an awkward position in Portuguese monetary reckoning — nominally worth 480 réis, it circulated alongside a chaotic mix of older milled and hammered silver that made everyday commerce genuinely difficult to settle. When the French invaded in 1807 and the royal court fled to Brazil, coinage operations shifted accordingly, and examples struck in the later years of this range bear the administrative fingerprints of a government operating in exile from Rio de Janeiro.
