Comment

Interesting fact

The Laurissilva of Macaronesia coin was part of a series of coins issued by Portugal to commemorate UNESCO World Heritage Sites. The coin features an image of the Laurissilva forest, which is a subtropical rainforest located in the Macaronesia region, which includes the Azores, Madeira, and the Canary Islands. The forest is home to a diverse array of plant and animal species, and is considered a unique and important ecosystem. The coin's design was created by the artist José Marques, and it was minted in 2007 as a proof issue, meaning it was struck multiple times to create a highly detailed and polished finish.
