| Obverse description | The Portuguese national coat of arms occupies the central field, depicting the traditional shield charged with five smaller escutcheons in cross formation, each bearing five bezants, superimposed on a larger shield with a bordure of seven castles. The arms are rendered in fine detail with hatching to indicate tinctures. The circular legend REPUBLICA PORTUGUESA runs along the upper periphery, while the date of issue appears in the lower field beneath the shield. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a bold, large numeral '1' prominently centered in the upper field, serving as the principal design element. Below the numeral, the denomination legend ESCUDO is inscribed in evenly spaced capital letters across the lower field. The overall design is austere and unadorned, with wide open fields framing the denomination in a clean, modernist style. |
