| Reverse description | Two facing busts in military uniform occupy the upper portion of the field, rendered in left-facing profile and identified by scrolled banderoles beneath each portrait reading ALBERTO I (Prince Albert I of Monaco) at left and CARLOS I (King Carlos I of Portugal) at right. Below the busts, a detailed depiction of the research yacht Amélia is shown sailing on stylised waves, with the vessel's name and the word Yacht inscribed in the field. The years 1896 and 1897 flank the exergual area, with the EXPO'98 logo centred at the bottom. The circular legend CENTENARIO DAS EXPEDICOES OCEANOGRAFICAS arcs along the full upper and lateral rim. |
