| 裏面の説明 | A stylized globe rendered in wireframe occupies the central field, encircled by a ring of human figures of varying ages and dress joining hands, symbolizing global unity and the world's population. The legend INDEPENDÊNCIA arcs along the upper right field, while the inscription NÓS SOMOS runs vertically along the left, and the numeral 4.000.000.000 is boldly inscribed along the lower portion of the field, representing the world's population at the time of independence. |

Issued two years after São Tomé and Príncipe became the last Portuguese African colony to achieve independence, on July 12, 1975, this piece belongs to a commemorative gold program common among newly sovereign African states of the 1970s — largely intended for foreign collector markets rather than domestic circulation. The islands had no meaningful gold mining tradition and no prior coinage of their own under colonial rule; Portuguese escudo notes and coins had served as the only currency.
The dobra itself was introduced at independence, replacing the escudo at par.
