If you're curious, there are two different versions for every year in this era, one with a French inscription and one in Dutch because Belgium...
I see them on eBay all the time but they sell for more than melt value. I think you could get at least $10 apiece for them. I collect Mexican...
Nice. I think Portuguese coins are underappreciated. Maybe because not many Americans have roots there. But they have some nice designs.
My coin shop doesn't really specialize in world coins so you can find some good deals there. They all know me by name and I've been coming there...

I've shown this before but this is one of my favorites.[ATTACH]
Thanks for the explanation. It's too bad. I don't collect the series and I didn't know anything about it. I just thought the date looked strange...
