| Obverse description | Central depiction of the Portuguese coat of arms occupying the upper half of the field, featuring the traditional escutcheon with five inescutcheons arranged in a cross pattern and a bordure of seven castles, surmounted by a fleur-de-lis finial, all set against a stylised geometric background of intersecting diagonal lines evoking a structural lattice. The denomination '20' appears in large numerals in the lower centre of the field, with the word 'ESCUDOS' inscribed beneath in smaller letters. The overall design reflects a modernist aesthetic consistent with mid-twentieth-century Portuguese coinage. |
