EuroSouvenir notes occupy an odd corner of notaphily — legal tender in face value terms they are not, but they are printed by the same security printers that produce circulating European currency, which gives them a production pedigree most commemorative items lack. Oberthur Fiduciaire has held contracts for genuine euro banknotes, so the substrate and security features on this piece are not decorative imitations.
Luís de Camões, the sixteenth-century poet whose Os Lusíadas remains the defining work of the Portuguese literary canon, died in 1580 — the same year Portugal lost its dynastic independence to Spain under Philip II. That coincidence has fed his mythologization ever since.
