| Aversbeschreibung | The central device depicts the coat of arms of Portuguese Guinea, comprising a Portuguese shield bearing five quinas arranged in a cross, superimposed upon an armillary sphere rendered in fine detail, symbolising Portugal's Age of Discovery. Below the shield, three wavy lines represent the sea. Above the shield, a row of five crowned castle towers forms the crest. The entire device is encircled by a beaded inner border, with the circumferential legend reading 'GUINÉ · V · CENTENÁRIO · DA · DESCOBERTA', commemorating the fifth centenary of the discovery of Guinea. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
Portuguese Guinea received almost no dedicated coinage until well into the twentieth century — the territory had long relied on issues from the broader Portuguese colonial series or imported metropolitan currency. The 1946 bronze escudo was part of a modest push to formalize circulation in the colony, struck at Lisbon's Casa da Moeda alongside issues for Angola, Mozambique, and other overseas possessions sharing that year's colonial minting program.
KM#7 is not a rare type, but surviving examples in problem-free condition are harder to source than mintage alone would suggest — the tropical West African climate was particularly unkind to bronze.
