Interesting fact
The 4 Centavos 1921 coin from Portuguese notgeld (Portugal) made of Porcelain (white) weighing 2.74 g is a rare and unique coin that was issued during a time of economic crisis in Portugal. The coin was made of porcelain, which was a unusual material for coins at the time, and it was designed to be used as a substitute for traditional metal coins that were in short supply. The coin's design features the Portuguese coat of arms and the value of 4 centavos, and it is considered a valuable collector's item among numismatists today.
