The national coat of arms of São Tomé and Príncipe occupies the central field, depicting a shield bearing a palm tree flanked by two African grey parrots as supporters, their wings spread. Above the shield is a five-pointed star, and two ribbons inscribed REPÚBLICA DEMOCRÁTICA DE S.TOMÉ and PRÍNCIPE are displayed above the supporters. Below the shield, a scroll bears the national motto UNIDADE · TRABALHO · DISCIPLINA. The date 1977 appears in the upper field, and the denomination 2500 Dobras is inscribed along the lower rim. The country name REPÚBLICA DEMOCRÁTICA DE S.TOMÉ E PRÍNCIPE runs along the outer legend, and a small mintmark is visible to the right of the coat of arms. |

| Descripción del reverso |
A standing female figure, draped in traditional wrapped cloth and wearing a head covering, is depicted in three-quarter view facing left, cradling an infant swaddled against her body in a traditional carry cloth. The composition is rendered in a stylised, sculptural manner evoking African artistic traditions, symbolising the nation's people and its future generations. The field is otherwise unadorned, lending prominence to the central motif. The legend INDEPENDÊNCIA is inscribed vertically along the left side of the field. |
