| Obverse description | A large royal crown occupies the central field, rendered in fine relief with decorative detailing. Below the crown, the denomination mark LXXX appears in bold numerals within the lower portion of the field, flanked by small floral or quatrefoil ornaments at the cardinal points. The circular legend surrounding the design reads MARIA.I.ET.PETRUS.III.D.G.PORT.ET.ALG.REGES, identifying the joint monarchs Maria I and Pedro III as rulers of Portugal and the Algarves. The overall composition is characteristic of late 18th-century Portuguese milled coinage, with a beaded border encircling the entire design. |
