The round button is printed in black on a yellow background. The design is an outline of the African continent with a rifle across the map. Black stars appear at the location of the three countries fighting for freedom from Portuguese colonialism. The acronyms of the liberation movements appear around the edge of the button: PAIGC (in Guinea-Bissau), FRELIMO (in Mozambique), and MPLA (in Angola). The Committee for Freedom in Mozambique, Angola and Guine (CFMAG) reprinted the button many times. Thousands were sent to Portugal after the April 25, 1974 coup. Size: 1.25 inches across.
