| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a large 15th-century Portuguese nau (carrack) rendered in high relief, shown broadside amid stylized rolling waves, with furled sails, detailed rigging, and shields bearing the Cross of Christ along the hull. In the left background, the towers and walls of a coastal fortification are visible, evoking a Portuguese stronghold on the African coast. The sculptor's and engraver's names appear in the upper field alongside the descriptive legend. |
