| Reverse description | A stylized profile bust of a football player in mid-action dominates the right portion of the field, rendered in bold minimalist lines suggestive of the shooting motion. To the left, a large football bearing the official UEFA Euro 2004 heart-shaped tournament logo occupies the centre, with the trademark initials TM above. Stylized rows of spectators rendered as simplified silhouetted figures fill the upper and lower registers, evoking a stadium atmosphere. The inscriptions UEFA, Euro 2004, and PORTUGAL appear within and below the tournament logo on the left side of the field. |
