Obverse lettering + FERNANDVS D G REX PORTVGALIE AL
Reverse description A bold plain cross pattée occupies the central field, dividing the reverse into four equal quarters, each plain. The cross is enclosed within a double beaded inner circle. Between the inner and outer beaded borders runs a lengthy Latin legend in uncial script, excerpted from Psalm 117:6, affirming royal and divine authority. A small ornamental rosette or star serves as a word divider within the legend. The overall style is consistent with late 14th-century Iberian hammered billon coinage.
