The €7 coin launch in Portugal pays tribute to Cristiano Ronaldo, widely regarded as one of the greatest footballers in history. The significance of the coin lies in Ronaldo's iconic association with the number 7, which he wore throughout his career, earning him the nickname "CR7." The decision to mint this coin is rooted in Ronaldo’s incredible legacy, not only as a national hero but also as a global football icon.
Historically, Ronaldo’s impact on Portuguese football has been monumental. He helped lead Portugal to victory in major tournaments, including their historic UEFA Euro 2016 triumph and the 2019 UEFA Nations League. His career, spanning over two decades, includes numerous individual accolades, such as five Ballon d'Or awards, and scoring over 900 career goals, making him one of the sport’s most decorated athletes.
The €7 coin, officially released in September 2024, serves as a symbol of Portugal’s admiration for Ronaldo’s achievements. It features Ronaldo’s face and the "CR7" logo, making it a highly sought-after collector's item. Despite its nominal value of €7, the coin’s rarity and Ronaldo’s global fanbase have driven its market value much higher
