Comment
These were among some of the first foreign coins minted by the Casa da Moeda do Brasil.
Interesting fact
The 10 Guaraníes coin from Paraguay, made of stainless steel and weighing 4.5 grams, is interesting because it was the first coin in the world to feature a unique design element - a raised, textured pattern that creates a tactile experience for the visually impaired. This innovative feature was introduced to help people with visual impairments distinguish the coin from others, and it has since been adopted by other countries in their coinage designs.
