| Obverse description | Central device depicts the Portuguese colonial arms of Cape Verde: the national shield of Portugal, featuring five escutcheons arranged in a cross charged with bezants, superimposed on an armillary sphere and flanked by a caravel in sail over stylized waves, all surmounted by a mural crown of five towers. The legend CABO VERDE arcs across the upper field in large incuse letters, flanked by small floral ornaments at either side of the lower field. The date 1968 appears in the lower exergue. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
