LUSO NUMISMATIX - Portuguese Coins, Moedas Portuguesas

Welcome to the Luso Numismatix

This site is dedicated to Portuguese Coins. Here you can find a directory of coins produced in Portugal since the Monarchy until the current days with the Euro.

The site was born in 1999 from a personal project to share information amoung coin collectors. Since then it has been re-structured several times to accomodate more functionality. Now it returns with a more professional design and very soon with a new set of services.

Amoung our plans are the following: a marketplace for private collectors, an image database with images of all coins, a blackboard for comercial advertisement, a forum and many more. To reach our objectives we are dependent on sponsoring.
