Female profile with stylized hair in the shape of a triskel. Wind turbines / wind farm.
Stamp with validity date. Every year, at the end of May, the MUSE loses 2% of its face value. Ticket holders must then revalidate their tickets = the "Fonte" procedure.
Ex: if you can't spend it, you buy a stamp for 2% of the ticket's value at a ticket counter and stick it on the back. This extends the ticket's validity by one year. No stamp: ticket invalid.
