The Portuguese ones are the most „historic“ looking, I’ll give you that João, but Geerts gulden were the prettiest
The exchange rate was like 5000 escudos to one euro, though.
Cool now divide everything by 100 and have normal currency.
Thanks hermano. I really miss the 25 pesetas coins you guys had, with the little hole in the middle, I thought those were cool as hell when I was a kid… Hasn’t been long since we lost all that… Has it?
Damn, pretty beautiful looking notes. Why doesn’t the EU produce some designs specific to each county?
Obviously should still be very clear that it’s a Euro but it sounds really fun to get notes from different areas – like getting a Portuguese ship as change in Germany
I remember holding a 500 escudos bill and thinking: I’m fucking rich.
It was 1995, and candy would cost 2.5 to 5 escudos a piece (bulk) in the store.
