It's been a while since I posted one of my coins. I am continuously adding fresh pieces to the stack but after posting coins for years and years I got a bit tired of it.
Anyways, here's one of my most recent additions:
Yeah, I got a bit silly with the photos π
Here's are some more "serious" close ups:
A train coin! π π π π π
So, what we have here is a commemorative piece from Portugal minted in 2020. The denomination is 7.5 euro and on the reverse the coin highlights the Douro Line.
This is one of the oldest lines in the country running through a beautiful landscape and it's also listed by UNESCO as a World Heritage site:
The Douro line (Portuguese: Linha do Douro) is a 99-mile (160 km) railway line in northern Portugal that runs from Ermesinde to the eastern terminus at Pocinho. The line runs close to the Douro River for much of its route, offering scenic views of the river and valley. Passenger trains are operated by Comboios de Portugal (CP) and run between Porto SΓ£o Bento and Pocinho, taking 3 hours and 20 minutes. Freight trains operated by Medway also run on the line. source
In the middle of the obverse side we have the the coat of arms of Portugal surrounded by the name of the country.
The coin is part of a series dedicated to the Ibero-American countries. Fyi, these are countries or territories where Spanish or Portuguese are r predominant languages.
And this is why the big Portugal coat of arms is surrounded by the arms of Ecuador, Spain, Guatemala, Nicaragua, Paraguay and Peru.
Nothing special on the edge in case you wonder:
When it comes to silver we have 13.5 g of 0.500 purity.
Yeah, nothing special.. But the coin is really shiny and I really like the design!
I don't have many train coins in my collection so it's a nice one for a difference. And the 8 arms on the other side is pretty epic!
All in all, a pretty nice coin if you ask me π π

Extra special just for being a coin from my country; had no idea there was one about the Douro line! And so true, the area is gorgeous! !BEER

It's a nice coin. The train looks nice but Douro sounds a bit weird as a name.

Cool coin do you remember how much you paid ??
More than I wanted. 10 euro π
Here this type of silver sometimes costs up to 20 or 30 euros...not a bad deal!
Wtf, you are from Portugal?
no no lol here in Canada just converted to EUR to help understanding!!! Originally I am from Brazil but I don't have any Portuguese coin for now!
Nice! And a Little Mermaid in there too? That's a nice coin! I love silver even at 50%!
