Until its independence in 1975, Cape Verde was represented by the Flag of Portugal. The first flag of Cape Verde featured the traditional Pan-African colors. It also maintained a link with its colonial past since these colors were also featured on the flag of Portugal. In 1992, the use of this flag was discontinued due to a conflict with Guinea-Bassau. This conflict ultimately led to the adoption of the unusually complex designed modern flag of Cape Verde.

In 1830, under the Portuguese rule, coins were introduced in the denominations of 5, 10, 20, and 50 centavos and 1 escudo. The lower denominations were of bronze, while the 50 centavos and 1 escudo were in nickel-bronze. In 1977, after independence, coins were issued in 20 and 50 centavos, 1, 2 1/2, 10, 20, and 50 escudos. Due to severe inflation, the centavo coins disappeared from circulation. In 1994, the present denomination coins were introduced. Coins of denominations 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100 are commonly used while 200, 500 coins are rarely used.

In 1914, escudo became the currency of Cape Verde. The escudo replaced the Cape Verdean real. However, Portuguese coins were used in Cape Verde until 1930. The Cape Verde escudo was pegged equal to Portuguese escudo until 1975. Afterward, it depreciated and in 1984 it became stable again. In 1998, an agreement led to the pegging of the Portuguese escudo at 0.55 Cape Verdean escudo. The replacement of Portuguese escudo by euro led to its pegging with the Cape Verdean escudo at 110.265 CVE = 1 EUR.

The National Flag of Cape Verde features five unequal horizontal bands. The top-most band of blue is equal to one half of the width of the flag and is followed by three bands of white, red, and white, each equal to 1/12 of the width; and a bottom stripe of blue equal to one-quarter of the flag width. A circle of 10 yellow, five-pointed stars is centered on the red stripe and is positioned 3/8 of the length of the flag from the hoist side. The blue color symbolizes the oceans and the sky. The circle of 10 stars represents the 10 major islands of the country that is united into a nation. The red and white bands symbolize the road to the formation of the country and economic progress through peace (white) and effort (red). The flag has a width-to-length proportion ratio of 10:17.
