In 2019 the 600 years of the discovery of the islands of Madeira and Porto Santo by the navigators Tristão Vaz Teixeira, Bartolomeu Perestrelo and João Gonçalves Zarco are commemorated, discoveries that took place during the first maritime incursions of the Portuguese into the Atlantic Ocean.

The national face of the 2 euro coin that commemorates this important historical milestone is the work of Júlio Pomar, being one of the last plastic creations of this magnificent artist, who left us a unique work, not only in the field of painting, also in design, sculpture, ceramics and literature.

During the next month of June, presumably on the 6th, the second coin of 2 euros commemorative of Portugal will be put into circulation in 2019. Under the name «600 years of the discovery of the islands of Madeira and Porto Santo» 520,000 coins will be issued: 500,000 in rolls will be put into circulation, 10,000 in Bu quality and 10,000 in Proof quality will be put on sale in the presentations that we will see below.

Discovery of Madeira and Porto Santo
 
 


The Portuguese navigators discovered the island of Porto Santo in 1418, after a storm on the high seas, in which the boat moved away from its route, along the African coast, due to bad weather. After many days drifting on the high seas, they spotted a small island that they called Porto Seguro, Porto Santo, because it saved the crew from a fateful destination.

A year after the discovery of Porto Santo they arrived on the island of Madeira in 1419. Its name seems to have been attributed to it by this last navigator, who baptized the island «Madeira» ("Wood" in Spanish), due to the abundance of this raw material.
