Interesting fact

The 80 Réis - João VI 1820 coin from Brazil was part of a series of coins minted during the reign of King João VI, who ruled Brazil and Portugal from 1816 to 1826. This particular coin is interesting because it was minted during a time of economic and political change in Brazil, as the country was transitioning from a Portuguese colony to an independent empire. Additionally, the coin's design features the image of King João VI, who played a significant role in Brazil's history and is still remembered today as a symbol of Brazilian independence.
