Interesting fact

The 20 Réis coin from Azores (Portugal) made of Copper and weighing 13g was minted during the reign of Queen Maria I (1790-1798) and features an image of the Queen on one side and the coat of arms of Portugal on the other. It's interesting to note that this coin was minted during a time of economic and political turmoil in Portugal, and its production was likely affected by the country's financial struggles. Despite this, the coin remains a valuable piece of history and a sought-after collector's item for numismatists today.
