Reverse description The reverse features a bold plain cross pattée extending nearly to the coin's edge, dividing the field into four quadrants. Each quadrant may contain small pellets or annulets as decorative fill elements, consistent with Portuguese dinheiro types of this reign. A circular legend in uncial Latin lettering surrounds the cross device, bearing the devotional inscription ADIVTORIVN:N (a truncated form of 'Adiutorium Nostrum'). The lettering is characteristic of the uncial style employed at the Évora mint during the reign of João I. The overall execution is typical of the rudimentary hammered technique used for base billon coinage of this period.
