| Reverse description | The reverse presents a stylized allegorical composition depicting the Earth as a globe rendered in low relief, partially encircled by sweeping wave-like forms suggesting wind currents or climatic forces, evoking the theme of climate change. A large crescent-shaped element frames the central motif, integrating the globe and flowing bands into a cohesive, dynamic design. The circular legend 'O CLIMA É CONNOSCO' (meaning 'The climate is with us') is inscribed along the outer periphery, divided between the upper and lower arcs of the coin. The overall artistic treatment is modern and symbolic, executed in the distinctive graphic style of engraver José Aurélio. |
