Interesting fact

The coin's design features a unique blend of traditional and modern elements. On one side, it features a portrait of King Manuel I, who ruled Portugal in the late 15th and early 16th centuries. On the other side, it depicts a modern interpretation of the Espingarda, a traditional Portuguese weapon used for hunting and self-defense. This blend of old and new creates a visually striking and meaningful representation of Portugal's history and culture.
