Frequently asked questions
Which periods and currencies are represented in this Portugal banknote category?
The shop’s Portugal catalog includes early 20th-century notes denominated in Centavos, including 5 Centavos from 1918 and 10 Centavos from 1917. The larger group is denominated in Escudos and spans 1961 to 1998, covering values from 20 to 5,000 Escudos. These dates and denominations describe the banknotes represented in this shop’s catalog, rather than every Portuguese issue.
Which Portuguese denominations and Pick references can collectors find here?
The catalog represents several Escudo denominations, including 20, 50, 100, 500, 1,000, 2,000 and 5,000 Escudos. Listed Pick references include P165a, P166, P167a, P168, P169a and P169b, as well as later references such as P178e, P180d, P181e, P189b and P190c. The category also includes P95c, P98 and P99 Centavo notes.
How can I distinguish similar Portuguese banknotes in this catalog?
Compare the denomination, year, Pick reference and any suffix attached to the reference. The catalog includes related variants such as P169a and P169b, P178a, P178b and P178e, and several P180 and P181 references. Some entries also specify a month, such as P178e (JUNE). Condition is another identifying feature, with listings marked UNC, XF, VF or F.
What condition information is provided for the Portugal notes?
Condition is stated in the individual catalog titles, using grades such as UNC, XF, VF and F. Some records also show corresponding abbreviations including EBC, MBC and BC. The same Pick reference may appear in more than one grade—for example, P168, P169a, P174b, P177a, P178b and P180d—so collectors should read the complete listing rather than relying on the reference alone.
What should I check before buying a Portugal banknote from this category?
Before buying, check the complete title for the year, denomination, Pick reference and stated grade. This is especially important where the catalog lists multiple variants or conditions for a similar note, such as P169a and P169b or different grades of P174b. Review the product images and description as supplied, since some records specifically state that the banknote corresponds with the image.
Which denomination shows particularly broad representation in this Portugal catalog?
The 100 Escudos denomination appears across several periods and references, including P165a from 1961, P169a and P169b, P178a and P178b, P178e (JUNE), and P179a. It is also represented in more than one grade, including UNC, XF and VF. This makes 100 Escudos a useful denomination for comparing design references, dates, variants and condition within the shop’s Portugal category.
