| Reverse description | The reverse depicts a Portuguese caravel under full sail navigating open waters, rendered in fine detail with billowing triangular lateen sails and a pennant flying from the masthead. Tropical vegetation is visible to the left of the vessel, and stylised waves and coastal rocks appear to the right. The explorer's name NVNO TRISTÃO arcs prominently along the upper field, with the inscription RIO GÀMBIA / 1446 positioned to the right of the ship. The engraver's signature ISABEL · F BRANCO appears in the lower central field, the date 1987 is inscribed along the lower rim, and the Casa da Moeda mint mark (incm) appears below it. The design is enclosed within a twisted rope border. |
