Portugal cufflinks are made using the Portugal escudos, these coins are no longer in circulation and are rare. These coins were referred to as cinco coroas (five crowns).

I am from Ireland, but 15 years ago I was living and working in the US and was at a party on the west coast. I saw a guy across the room and noticed his cufflinks. I went over to have a closer look, they were made from old New York City Subway tokens. We got talking and he told me that: “they remind me home, I’m a real New Yorker wherever I go...” This was something I could relate to, I was away from home and carried a couple of my own mementos - photos etc. links to family, but not my heritage. This encounter struck a chord with me, but lay dormant for many years until I found myself living back in Ireland.
