| Reverse description | The central device depicts a boldly struck armillary sphere — the traditional Portuguese symbol of overseas dominion — rendered without a mint workshop letter, showing the characteristic grid of meridian and parallel bands encircled by a diagonal ecliptic ring. The sphere occupies the full field and is enclosed within a beaded border. The circumferential legend, separated by pellets, reads PECUNIA.TOTUM.CIRCUMIT.ORBEM ('Money goes around the whole world'), referencing Portugal's global maritime trade. |
