    Along the upper edge of the coin, the Latin text 'IN HOC SI — GNO VINCES', meaning 'In this sign thou shalt conquer', is separated by the cross of the crown. In the central part is the coat of arms of the Brazilian Empire: the heraldic shield is crowned with the imperial crown and framed on three sides by a wreath formed by branches of a coffee tree on the left and tobacco on the right, tied at the base. On the shield, within a circular border of evenly spaced stars, an armillary sphere is depicted against a cross potent.

In the central part is a left-facing profile portrait of Emperor Pedro II.
