In the central part, 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 ring of evenly spaced stars, is depicted an armillary sphere on a background of a cross pattée. Above the crown, a horizontal Latin inscription 'IN HOC S. VINCES', meaning 'With this you shall conquer', is divided by the cross of the crown.

Around the edge of the coin are decorative raised dots. Along the rim: left, top, and right, a Latin inscription 'PETRUS II. D.G.CONST. IMP. ET PERP. BRAS.DEF.', translating to 'Peter II, by the Grace of God and the Constitution, Emperor of Brazil'; at the bottom, the year of minting '1848'. In the central part, within a circular wreath, are large numerals '500', above and below which is a decorative raised pattern in the form of a quatrefoil with two diverging horizontal rays.
