Depicts the emblem of Portugal surrounded by the country name, with Macau above and the date below.

The coat of arms of Portugal is popularly referred as the Cinco Quinas (Five Quinas) or simply the Quinas (a quina being each of the five escutcheons in form of a cross with five bezants of the Portuguese shield). In the late 14th century, the number of bezants was fixed in five. Late explanations interpret them as the five wounds of Jesus Christ. The shield resting in front is composed of seven golden castles, which represent the Moorish castles conquered during the Reconquista.

There are two versions:
• In the "High stars" variant, the two bottom stars are positioned higher than the two lower towers in the coat of arms, and the star following PORTUGUESA is placed to the top-right of the coat of arms.
• In the "Low stars" variant, the stars are at the same height as—or lower than—the towers, and the star after PORTUGUESA is positioned directly to the right of the coat of arms.
