2017 Annual Series (Proof)
INCM presents the collection of euro coins issued in Portugal in 2017 struck with special proof finish on specially prepared metal blanks using polished and frosted dies.
Designs inspired by the Coimbra earthenware, also known as “ratinho” earthenware, produced since the end of the 18th century. Carried in the saddlebags of people from the mountains of Beira who used to seek seasonal work on Alentejo estates, this popular and strong crockery was also used as a currency and bartered directly for other products.
