Comment
Commemorative coin marking the end of WWII 70 years ago.Interesting fact
The 2015 Portuguese 2½ Euros coin commemorating 70 years of peace in Europe is made of 99.9% gold, which is a highly unusual composition for a coin. Most coins are made of a combination of metals, such as copper, nickel, and zinc, or a combination of these metals with a small amount of gold or silver. The use of pure gold for this coin makes it particularly valuable and collectible.
