Beschrijving keerzijde The Portuguese national coat of arms occupies the central field, featuring five escutcheons arranged in a quincunx formation, each bearing five white bezants in saltire, symbolizing the five wounds of Christ, all enclosed within a red bordure charged with seven castles. The armorial design is surrounded by the commemorative legend referencing the fifth centenary of the death of Infante Dom Henrique, with a date cartouche bearing '1960'. The overall composition is formal and heraldically precise, consistent with official Portuguese coinage of the period.

Aanvullende informatie

This piece was struck as a pattern for the 1960 commemorative program marking the 500th anniversary of the death of Prince Henry the Navigator. Casa da Moeda produced multiple pattern variants that year in differing compositions and weights as the mint worked through approval submissions — KM#Pr10 represents one branch of that process that never advanced to circulation issue. The approved circulating 5 Escudos of 1960 was ultimately struck in copper-nickel, making this silver-alloy pattern a dead-end prototype rather than a precursor.
