| Beschrijving voorzijde | Facing bust of Titina Sila, the Guinea-Bissau independence heroine, wearing a traditional woven cap, rendered in high relief against a mirror-polished field. The subject's name TITINA SILA appears as an incuse legend to the left of the effigy. The circular legend REPUBLICA DA GUINE-BISSAU arcs along the upper periphery, while the date 1984 is placed in the exergue below the bust. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Guinea-Bissau had no business minting an Olympic-themed 250 Pesos coin in 1984. The country was barely eight years independent, running a command economy under the PAIGC party, and had no athletes competing in Los Angeles — where the Games were held that year, boycotted by the Soviet bloc. The coin exists because a European mint agency sold the issue as a revenue-generating program for cash-strapped governments, a common arrangement in the 1980s that flooded collector markets with dubious "sports series" struck for nations with no connection to the events depicted.
The X# prefix in the reference confirms its status outside the regular monetary series — never intended for circulation.
