Reverse description The reverse presents an abstract, modernist composition evoking the atmosphere of Fado music, featuring a stylised Portuguese guitarra with its characteristic teardrop-shaped resonator and fretted neck rendered in fine detail to the right of the field. The lower portion of the design depicts schematic figures suggestive of performers, rendered in a minimalist graphic style. To the left, the inscriptions appear in multiple lines, identifying the coin's commemorative theme. The overall composition is divided by geometric lines, reinforcing the contemporary artistic treatment.
