Obverse

At the center of the coin is a sphere symbolizing the Earth, surrounded by a stylized representation of various human figures. Above it, on the right, are two hands placed one above the other, and behind them is a gear, the symbol of Rotary. At the bottom of the sphere are the inscriptions "ROTARY," "PORTUGAL," and the year of issue "2026." At the bottom right is the mintmark "CASA DA MOEDA," the national coat of arms in the center, and the designer's name "Esc. João Duarte" on the left. Around the outer ring are 12 five-pointed stars representing the European Union.
