| Reverse description | Central field features a plain Latin cross extending to the inner beaded border, dividing the field into four quadrants each containing a cinquefoil (quina) rosette. A second beaded circle frames the cross design. The peripheral legend 'IN HOC SIGNO VINCES' ('In this sign thou shalt conquer') appears in Gothic characters between the inner and outer beaded borders, separated by pellets, consistent with the hammered coinage of João III. |
