Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 40 Réis - Pedro II (2 Vinténs) 1832-1833 coin from Brazil is that it was one of the first coins to feature a portrait of a Brazilian emperor, Pedro II, who was only 16 years old when he ascended to the throne. This coin was minted during his early years as emperor, and it reflects the young emperor's vision for Brazil's future, which was characterized by modernization and progress.
