| Obverse description | Left-facing allegorical bust of the Portuguese Republic, rendered in the style of Libertas, with hair drawn back and adorned with a laurel sprig behind the ear. The effigy is set within a beaded border, with the colonial territory name GUINÉ inscribed vertically along the right field in Latin characters. The portrait is modeled in moderate relief with clean, classical lines characteristic of early twentieth-century Portuguese colonial coinage. |
