Museum, mirror mine
Do you trust in paper? The first Portuguese paper money was a Bill. But what was it for? We will find out how the two Bordalo Pinheiro brothers managed to put a factory into action and then analyse the most beautiful of shares – that of the Earthenware Factory in Caldas da Rainha. All this as well as a challenge for those with a quick eye: what features constitute a note and can you find the difference between the features of five notes? |
Alves Reis, a nearly-perfect fraud

This year saw the end of the saga of Alves Reis, the greatest swindler in Portuguese history, when groups of two 500-escudo notes, plate 2, with the same serial number, were discovered in Oporto. |
