Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 100 Réis - Luiz I 1864-1889 coin from Portugal is that it was minted during a time of great change and modernization in the country. The coin was introduced in 1864, just a few years after the establishment of the First Portuguese Republic in 1852, and it remained in circulation until the end of King Luiz I's reign in 1889. During this time, Portugal underwent significant economic, social, and political reforms, including the abolition of slavery, the expansion of education and healthcare, and the development of infrastructure such as railways and telegraphs. The coin's design, featuring an image of King Luiz I on one side and the Portuguese coat of arms on the other, reflects the country's shift towards modernity and its growing sense of national identity.
