Along the upper edge of the coin, the Latin text 'IN HOC SI — GNO VINCES', meaning 'In this sign thou shalt conquer', is divided by a 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, is depicted an armillary sphere on a background of a cross pattée.

DEF.', translating to 'Peter II, by the Grace of God and the Constitution, Emperor of Brazil'; below is the mint year '1859'. In the central part is a left-facing profile portrait of Emperor Pedro II.
