The executive's initiative, the document refers, falls within the scope of the costs incurred by the BNA within the scope of its responsibility for the production of legal tender and liberating metallic notes and coins in the Republic of Angola.

On the coin's obverse, the motif stands out, represented by the "fraternal embrace and the feeling of national unity among Angolans" and the inscription at the top "PEACE AND NATIONAL RECONCILIATION".
Among the features, the inscription "2002-2022" stands out, which constitutes the interval between the year in which the memorandum of understanding was signed and the agreement that established peace in Angola.
"One of the executive's long-term strategic objectives is to guarantee national unity and cohesion, promoting peace and Angola. It is in this scope that this legislative initiative is inserted", is also read in the report on the basis of the law.
