| Obverse description | The national coat of arms of Cape Verde occupies the upper central field, depicted as a circular emblem surrounded by a wreath of corn and other vegetation, with a star and cogwheel at its centre and the motto UNIDADE TRABALHO PROGRESSO inscribed around the inner ring. Below the arms, the denomination 50 appears in large numerals, with the legend ESCUDOS CABOVERDIANOS and the date 1984 inscribed beneath in smaller lettering. The country name REPÚBLICA DE CABO VERDE curves along the left and lower periphery of the coin in bold raised Latin letters. The overall design is rendered in a clean, modern relief characteristic of post-independence African coinage. |
