| Reverse description | Central field features a plain cross pattée dividing the field into four quadrants, each containing a small pellet, all enclosed within a beaded inner circle. The surrounding legend +IN HOC SIGNO VINCES, meaning 'In this sign thou shalt conquer,' encircles the design between inner and outer beaded borders. The motto is a traditional Christian rallying phrase closely associated with Portuguese royal coinage, rendered in the rough, hand-struck style consistent with hammered issues of the reign of Afonso VI. |
