| Additional information |
Part of Portugal's long-running aromatic and medicinal plants series, this issue highlights a native species found across the Iberian Peninsula in damp river margins and mountain meadows. The series itself has drawn consistent collector interest across Europe, partly because Casa da Moeda has maintained tight mintage controls on each botanical release, keeping secondary market premiums relatively stable across the run.
