| Reverse description | The gold ring and silver centre together present a bold, modernist stylised portrait of the novelist Eça de Queiroz in right-facing profile, executed in an angular, cubist-influenced artistic style designed by Paulo Guilherme. The legend 'ECA DE QUEIROZ' arcs prominently along the upper left field. The centennial dates '1900' and '2000' appear in the lower centre, flanking the exergue. The engraver's name 'PAULO-GUILHERME' and the mint mark 'INCM' are inscribed in the lower right field. |
