Interesting fact

The 10 Reis coin from Portugal, minted between 1835 and 1839 during the reign of Queen Maria II, features an interesting design element. On the obverse side, the coin bears the image of a crowned shield with the Portuguese coat of arms, surrounded by a wreath of laurel leaves. This design was meant to symbolize the country's rich history and its connection to the European monarchies of the time.
