| Beschrijving voorzijde | The obverse features a large stylized numeral '200' dominating the field, with the national arms of Cape Verde — depicting a plumb bob above a torch and open book, encircled by ten stars and flanked by laurel branches — incorporated within the upright stroke of the digit '2'. The curved upper portion of the '2' sweeps across the upper field, framing the commemorative legend. The denomination word 'escudos' appears in the lower field in small incuse lettering. The design contrasts polished relief elements against a darkened recessed background, giving a striking two-tone effect. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Cape Verde's independence from Portugal in 1975 came after years of armed struggle led by the PAIGC, the joint Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde liberation movement founded by Amílcar Cabral, who was assassinated two years before he could see it achieved. The two countries briefly planned a political union that never materialized, leaving Cape Verde to chart its own monetary course with the escudo retained as currency — a name inherited directly from the colonial power it had just expelled.
KM#45 is a circulating commemorative, not a collector-only issue, meaning examples saw genuine pocket wear in the archipelago's nine inhabited islands.
