| Reverse description | Central field features a large X (denoting the denomination of 10 Réis) rendered in bold relief, with four decorative star ornaments positioned in the angles formed by the diagonals of the X, and an arrangement of pellets or bezants filling the four quadrants. The entire device is enclosed within a plain inner circle. A circular Latin legend surrounds the design along the periphery, identifying the ruler's regnal title. The overall composition is typical of Portuguese cobre (copper) coinage of the reign of Sebastião I, with the denomination mark as the dominant reverse type. |
