Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 1994 Portuguese 200 Escudos (Partilha do Mundo; Gold) coin is that it was minted to commemorate the 500th anniversary of the discovery of the Madeira Islands by the Portuguese explorer João Gonçalves Zarco in 1419. The coin's design features an image of Zarco's ship, the "Santa Maria," on the obverse, and the coat of arms of Portugal on the reverse. The coin's gold content and limited mintage make it a valuable and sought-after collector's item among numismatists.
