| Reverse description | The Portuguese royal armillary sphere surmounted by an elaborate royal crown, the sphere bearing the quartered shield of Portugal at its centre — displaying the five quinas (escutcheons charged with bezants) and the border of castles — all within the bands of the sphere. The crowned armillary sphere is flanked by two symmetrical laurel branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow, forming a wreath open at the top. The field is plain and without legend, giving the design a bold, heraldic character consistent with Luso-Brazilian coinage of the Joanine period. |
