Reverse description A large stylized profile face gazes downward toward the lower left, its flowing hair merging organically with turbulent ocean waves that fill the field in a bold Art Nouveau-influenced composition. A historical caravel under sail is depicted within the waves beneath the face, symbolizing Portugal's Age of Discovery and Atlantic exploration. The circular legend 'MILÉNIO DO ATLÂNTICO' arcs along the upper rim. The date '1999' and mint mark 'INCM' appear to the left, with the engraver's signature 'PAULO-GUILHERME' inscribed along the lower rim.
