Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1000 Réis - Pedro V 1855 coin from Portugal is that it was minted during a time of great change in the country. The coin was issued in 1855, just a year after the Liberal Revolution of 1854, which saw the end of the monarchy and the establishment of a liberal government. This period of political upheaval and transition is reflected in the coin's design, which features an image of King Pedro V on one side and the coat of arms of Portugal on the other. Despite the changes taking place in the country, the coin remained a standard circulation coin and was used widely in everyday transactions.
