| Additional information |
Rosa Mota won three Boston Marathons, three European Championships, and the 1988 Seoul Olympic marathon — a competitive record that no other Portuguese athlete of the 20th century came close to matching. Portugal's commemorative coin programs have leaned heavily on sporting achievement since the 1990s, and Mota was an overdue inclusion. The "Sport Heroes" series pairs each subject with a face value of 7.50 euros, a denomination issued purely for collector purposes with no circulation intention.
