| Reverse description | The central field bears the large denomination numeral '50' in bold raised figures, with the word CENTAVOS inscribed in a curved legend immediately below. The circumferential legend REPÚBLICA·PORTUGUESA runs along the upper periphery, separated from the field by a beaded inner border that follows the full circumference of the coin. The overall composition is stark and typographic, with no figurative devices, allowing the denomination to dominate the plain field. A small mint mark appears at the base of the design below the legend. |
