Interesting fact

The Baroque Age coin features a unique design that showcases the rich cultural heritage of Portugal during the Baroque period. The obverse side of the coin depicts the portrait of King João V, who ruled Portugal from 1706 to 1750, while the reverse side features a stunning representation of the Jerónimos Monastery, a prominent Baroque-style building in Lisbon. This monastery was built in the 16th century to commemorate Vasco da Gama's voyage to India and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The coin's design serves as a testament to Portugal's rich history and cultural legacy.
