| Obverse description | The arms of Portugal rendered as a stylized cross design occupying much of the field, with the national shield at centre featuring the traditional quinas and castles. The circular legend 'REPÚBLICA PORTUGUESA' runs along the upper periphery, divided by the vertical arm of the cross, with the date '2006' inscribed in the lower field. The overall composition employs a modernist geometric treatment, dividing the field into quadrants by intersecting horizontal and vertical bands. |
