Eusébio (Silver Proof)
INCM has created a new series of collectable coins entitled Heroes of Sport, paying homage to figures from the world of sport who, through their examples of strength, willpower and talent, are a source of pride and inspiration for several generations of Portuguese people.
The first coin in this series, created by illustrator André Carrilho, is dedicated to Eusébio da Silva Ferreira, also known by the nickname of "Black Panther" or "King", a worldwide football legend, hero of the 1966 World Cup, European Champion for Benfica in 61/62 and twice winner of the "European Golden Boot", in 1968 and 1973.
