| Reverse description | A bold left-facing bust of Christopher Columbus dominates the left-center of the field, set against a radiating half-star or compass-rose design composed of triangular rays. To the right, an outline map of the Iberian Peninsula is depicted, overlaid with the Portuguese Quinas (five-shield cross emblem). The dates '1476' and '1485', denoting Columbus's years of residence in Portugal, are inscribed below center. The legend 'COLOMBO E PORTUGAL' curves along the upper rim in large letters, referencing the explorer's connection to the country. |
