Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 500 Réis coin from Brazil is that it was minted during a time of economic turmoil in the country. The coin was introduced in 1936, and its production was discontinued in 1938, due to the economic reforms implemented by the government, which replaced the old currency with a new one. Despite its short circulation period, the coin remains a valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
