Step back in time with this charming postcard from the early 1900s, showcasing Portugal's currency and its equivalent values in other major European countries. The postcard features a colorful design, with the Portuguese flag proudly displayed at the top. The flag, a vibrant combination of red, white, and blue, bears a golden fringe and a crown in the center. Below the flag, a collection of Portuguese coins is arranged, providing a closer look at the national currency. The coins include the Reis, Tostão, and Coroa, with denominations clearly marked. The Reis coin, the smallest, is depicted in copper, while the Tostão and Coroa coins are shown in silver and gold, respectively. The postcard also includes a comparison of these Portuguese coins with their international counterparts. The values of the Portuguese coins are listed alongside their equivalents in French, British, and German currencies. This comparison allows for an interesting exploration of the exchange rates between these countries during the early 1900s. The postcard serves as a fascinating glimpse into the financial and monetary systems of the time, offering a unique perspective on the international exchange of goods and services. It is a captivating reminder of the rich history of currency and finance, and a testament to the global interconnectedness that has shaped our world.
