Reverse description Saint Thomas (São Tomé) seated facing, rendered in a classical manner reminiscent of Hellenistic iconographic traditions adapted for Portuguese colonial coinage. The apostle is depicted enthroned, holding attributes associated with his martyrdom, with the abbreviated legend 'S' to the left and 'T' to the right of the central figure. The design is set within a plain inner circle surrounded by a beaded outer border.
