Obverse description The national coat of arms of São Tomé and Príncipe occupies the central field, depicting two sea eagles displayed and flanking a shield, surmounted by a five-pointed star and a scroll bearing inscriptions, rendered in fine relief. The denomination '1000 DOBRAS' appears in the lower central field beneath the arms, with the date '1998' inscribed below. The surrounding legend 'REPÚBLICA DEMOCRÁTICA DE S. TOMÉ E PRÍNCIPE' runs along the periphery of the decagonal flan in raised Latin lettering.

Reverse description The central field depicts a dynamic athletic scene of two football players contesting for the ball in front of a goal net, rendered in bold relief against a plain field, evoking the excitement of the 1998 FIFA World Cup held in France. The upper peripheral legend reads 'CAMPEÃO MUNDIAL DE FUTEBOL FRANÇA 1998', flanked by two small five-pointed stars. The word 'FRANÇA' is prominently inscribed in the lower field beneath the central design, serving as both a geographic reference and a tribute to France as the host nation and champion.
