500 years Voyage around the World Ferdinand Magellan (Magalhães) - 2 euro Portugal 2019
Magellan was born in a noble family in the Portuguese town of Sabrosa, somewhere around 1480. After spending his youth in Lisbon, Magellan decided his life could use some adventure. In 1505 he participated in several Portuguese naval missions and fell in love with the explorer lifestyle.
In 1519, exactly 500 years ago, the explorer was named commander of the first ever circumnavigation of the world! That's a great reason for a commemorative coin, don't you think?
