The base metal version is available at face. The original morabitino used for the design of this coin was issued in the early/mid 12th century. Last year&#039;s piece <a href="http://www.muenzauktion.com/witte/pic/x_36141a.jpg" target="_blank" class="externalLink ProxyLink" data-proxy-href="http://www.muenzauktion.com/witte/pic/x_36141a.jpg" rel="nofollow">http://www.muenzauktion.com/witte/pic/x_36141a.jpg</a> was based on a 15th century &quot;Justo&quot;; this year&#039;s issue will honor a Portuguez (10 cruzados) coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>Christian[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
