Endangered Animal Species Series - Seahorse
An enigmatic creature Seahorses are very different from all other fish: they swim upright, spend most of their time still, and move slowly. There are around 50 different species around the world and in Portugal we can find two types: the Hippocampus guttulatus (long-nosed seahorse) and the hippocampus (short-nosed seahorse), mostly in the lagoons of the Ria Formosa . They measure between 12 and 15 centimeters. These enigmatic creatures are worth getting to know better. The silver version of this coin has some colored details.

Portugal and the East Series - The Art of Lacquerware (Portugal and Japan)
A mix of cultures
In 1543, three Portuguese arrived on the island of Tanegashima, becoming the first Europeans to reach the land of the rising sun. From the beginning, Portugal
and Japan influenced each other in various fields: from the most technical to the most artistic, and they maintained intense commercial relations. One of the most sought after Japanese products were the famous lacquerware (urushi), created by master craftsmen who used a technique as complex as it was ancient. The silver version of this coin has some color details.

Janeiro to Hong Kong. Today, his multifaceted work goes far beyond these iconic works of art. As Vhils' name and work spread around the world, it is also a bit of Portugal that goes the furthest.

In 2022, the INCM will issue the fourth and last commemorative coin in this series
dedicated to the last stage of the circumnavigation.
