| Reverse description | The reverse presents the denomination 50 in large numerals prominently at the center of the field, with CENTAVOS inscribed immediately below in smaller letters. A double dotted inner circle frames the central denomination device, creating a decorative border. The circumferential legend REPÚBLICA·PORTUGUESA arcs along the upper periphery, while the commemorative date span 1446–1946 is displayed along the lower margin, referencing the historical period of Guinea's discovery. Small rosette stops punctuate the legend, consistent with the decorative conventions of Portuguese colonial coinage. |
