Interesting fact

The 10 Réis coin from Brazil, minted during the reign of João VI (1818-1823), is notable for its unique design. It features an image of the king on one side and the Portuguese coat of arms on the other, surrounded by a wreath of leaves. This design was a departure from the traditional designs used on previous Brazilian coins, which often featured images of the Portuguese royal family or other symbols of Portuguese rule. The use of a more nationalistic design on the 10 Réis coin reflects the growing sense of Brazilian identity and independence during this period.
