Obverse description The obverse features the large numeral '5' prominently in the center of the field, surmounted by a horizontal line beneath the country name 'BRASIL' inscribed along the upper portion of the coin. The currency symbol 'CR$' appears below the numeral, partially overlaid on a decorative arrangement of tropical palm fronds that frames the lower half of the design. The date appears vertically along the left side of the field. The overall design is bold and graphic, emphasizing the denomination against a lightly striated background.

The bird in the foreground faces left while the second macaw, positioned slightly higher and to the right, faces downward toward the first. Stylized tropical foliage elements appear at the upper left and lower right of the design. The legend 'ARARA' (Portuguese for macaw) is inscribed vertically along the right side of the field.
