| Obverse description | The obverse displays the civic coat of arms of Portage la Prairie centered in the field, flanked by the centennial dates 1880 and 1980 commemorating the 100th anniversary of the city's incorporation. The heraldic shield is adorned with two vertically arranged sheaves of wheat, symbolizing the city's agricultural heritage on the Manitoba prairies. A bird perched atop a crown surmounts the crest, representing civic sovereignty. The shield is framed by ornate filigree scrollwork in a traditional heraldic style, with a motto banner inscribed beneath. The peripheral legend reads PORTAGE LA PRAIRIE / MANITOBA, with trade value and expiry date inscriptions completing the outer legend. |
