| Obverse description | Central relief effigy of Our Lady of Aparecida in her traditional robed and crowned form, set within a starfield border. The inner field is enclosed by a ring of stylized triangular points, with the circular legend surrounding the whole design. Note: the medallion appears to have been struck inverted relative to the legend, as the text reads correctly only when the piece is rotated 180 degrees. |
