Interesting fact
The 200 Escudos coin from Portugal, minted in 1995, features a unique design that showcases the country's rich history and culture. The obverse side of the coin depicts the image of King Manuel I, who ruled Portugal from 1495 to 1521, while the reverse side features the iconic Jerónimos Monastery, a beautiful example of Manueline architecture located in Lisbon. The monastery was built in the early 16th century to commemorate Vasco da Gama's voyage to India and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. This coin is a great example of how numismatics can serve as a window into a country's history, culture, and artistic heritage.
