| Obverse description | Central field features the Portuguese colonial arms: the shield of Portugal superimposed upon an armillary sphere, the latter symbolising the Age of Discovery and Portugal's overseas empire. The crowned shield displays the traditional quinas and bordure of castles in high relief. The colonial territory name S. TOMÉ E PRÍNCIPE arcs along the upper periphery in bold Latin lettering, while the date 1951 appears in large numerals at the lower field, flanked by small floral ornaments. The entire design is enclosed within a beaded border. |
