Before the arrival of the euro, these coins were part of the daily lives of Portuguese people. They evoke the golden age of navigation, maritime discoveries, and the history of a country deeply connected to the ocean for centuries. This lot brings together several Portuguese escudo and centavo coins, issued before the transition to the European currency. It notably includes 20, 50, and 100 escudo coins, as well as several older coins and an ancient token, preserved in their used condition. The coins display a natural patina and the marks of time associated with their circulation. They are sold exactly as photographed. An ideal set for world coin collectors, Portugal enthusiasts, or those passionate about European monetary history.
