| Reverse description | The reverse features the large Roman numeral XX boldly struck in the centre of the field, denoting the denomination of 20 Réis (one Vintem). The numerals are enclosed within a wreath of laurel or olive branches tied at the base with a decorative floral motif, forming a complete circular frame around the value mark. The field within the wreath is plain. The overall design is clean and emblematic, characteristic of the standardised denomination coinage introduced under João III for clarity in everyday commerce. |
