NOTE: Countermark on various 40 Réis.Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 10 Réis - Pedro II (Maranhao First Series Countermarked 40 Réis) ND (1835) coin from Brazil is that it was countermarked with a 40 Réis stamp, indicating that it was used as a form of currency in the province of Maranhao, despite being minted with a face value of 10 Réis. This practice of countermarking coins was common in Brazil during the 19th century, as it allowed for the use of coins from different regions and mints as a standardized form of currency.
