| Reverse description | The reverse presents a finely detailed perspective view of a traditional Lisbon streetcar (eléctrico) ascending a steep, narrow urban street flanked by characteristic multi-storey tile-clad Lisbon façades. Overhead tram wires and architectural detail are rendered with precision, evoking the historic character of the Portuguese capital. The legend CAPITAIS IBERO-AMERICANAS and the series inscription XIII SÉRIE appear along the left and upper periphery, while the mint name CASA DA MOEDA, the engraver's signature N. Caetano, and the cursive inscription Lisboa are inscribed in the lower field and right portion of the design. |

| Additional information |
The Ibero-American Capitals series is a joint commemorative program coordinated among the minting authorities of Spain, Portugal, and Latin American nations, each issuing coins tied to a rotating host city. Lisbon's inclusion in the 2024 cycle marks one of the few recent occasions the Casa da Moeda has participated at the copper-nickel circulation-quality tier rather than issuing exclusively in silver or bimetallic formats.
The 7½ euro denomination itself is a Portuguese invention — introduced in 2008 as a face value that sidesteps direct competition with the European Central Bank's regulated denominations while still qualifying as legal tender.
