Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 2500 Reis - Maria II 1851 coin from Portugal is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in the country. The coin was issued in 1851, just a year after the Liberal Revolution, which saw the end of the Portuguese monarchy and the establishment of a liberal government. This period of political upheaval is reflected in the design of the coin, which features an image of Queen Maria II on one side and the coat of arms of Portugal on the other. Despite the turmoil of the time, the coin remains a valuable and sought-after collector's item, with its gold content and historical significance making it a prized addition to any collection.
