| Reverse description | Crowned Portuguese royal coat of arms centered in the field, displaying the escutcheon of Portugal with the five quinas in the traditional arrangement of blue bezants on white. The shield is framed by elaborate baroque foliate scrollwork and decorative mantling radiating into the field, with a royal crown surmounting the composition. The ornate heraldic design is characteristic of the Goa mint's engraving tradition during the late 18th century, filling the available flan with dense decorative elements. |
