Interesting fact

The 10 Centavos 1915 coin was minted during a time of great change in Portugal. The country was in the midst of the First World War, and the coin's design reflects this. The obverse side of the coin features a portrait of King Manuel II, who ruled Portugal from 1908 until the monarchy was overthrown in 1910. Despite this, the coin was still minted with his image, indicating the lingering influence of the monarchy even after its fall.
