Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 160 Réis - João Prince Regent 1810-1815 from Brazil is that it was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Brazil. The coin was issued during the regency of João, Prince Regent, who ruled Brazil on behalf of his father, King João VI, who had fled to Portugal during the Napoleonic Wars. The coin's mintage was part of an effort to stabilize the Brazilian economy and promote trade, but it was also a symbol of the political and social changes that were taking place in Brazil during this time.
