| Obverse description | The obverse features a childlike, stylized composition divided into two contrasting fields: the upper portion depicts undulating wave-like lines representing the sea, while the lower portion shows a calm, smooth ground. At center, the Portuguese coat of arms appears in relief, flanked to the left by a curved legend reading '5 EURO' and to the right by a small group of figures representing migrants, with the year '2019' inscribed nearby. The word 'PORTUGAL' is inscribed in large letters along the lower arc of the coin, rendered in a bold, informal typeface consistent with the coin's artistic theme of child-drawn imagery. |

| Reverse description | The reverse presents a naïve, child-inspired artistic design depicting the sea rendered as bold horizontal undulating lines filling the lower field. A large oval form resembling a fish or vessel with a textured, scale-like surface emerges from the waves near the upper right. Above, the word 'O MAR' is inscribed in a loose, hand-drawn style lettering, and the word 'SALVA' appears in large informal characters along the lower field. The engraver's signature and the INCM mint mark appear in the lower right exergue area. |
