Interesting fact

The 1 Real coin from Brazil, made of stainless steel and weighing 4.27g, was part of a series of coins introduced in 1994 to replace the previous cruzeiro real currency. The coin features the iconic Brazilian bird, the toucan, on its reverse side, and the portrait of Brazil's first president, Deodoro da Fonseca, on its obverse side. The use of stainless steel in the coin's composition was a deliberate choice to make it more durable and resistant to corrosion, ensuring that it would withstand heavy circulation and last for a long time.
