2021Portuguese Numismatic 2nd Group - First Day Cover

In 2021, in partnership with the INCM, CTT continues its Portuguese Numismatics series by presenting five coins minted in Portugal between the 12th and 16th centuries. These are some of the greatest numismatic treasures in the country, bearing witness to episodes spanning centuries of history. They offer a paradigmatic portrayal of the big issues marking our past: the legitimising of independence, the founding of the country, the consolidation of royal authority, the development of national symbols and the start of the discoveries and overseas expansion.
