Interesting fact

The Pattern 6400 Réis - José I (Pattern Type 3 - Rio de Janeiro) 1771-1772 from Brazil made of Copper is a rare and valuable coin, with only a few known examples surviving to this day. One interesting fact about this coin is that it was part of a series of pattern coins minted during the reign of King José I of Portugal, who ruled from 1750 to 1777. These pattern coins were created to test new designs and metallic compositions, and were not meant for circulation. As a result, they are highly sought after by collectors and numismatists today.
