A semicircular legend at the upper field reads '250 ANOS TORRE DOS CLÉRIGOS — 2013', commemorating the 250th anniversary of the tower. In the lower right, the Portuguese coat of arms appears above the country name 'PORTUGAL', while the mint mark and engraver's credit 'INCM — HUGO MACIEL' are inscribed to the left. The outer ring carries the twelve stars of the European Union. |
