Interesting fact

The 80 Réis - Maria II 1829 coin from Azores (Portugal) was minted during a time of great change in Portugal. The coin was issued during the reign of Queen Maria II, who ruled Portugal from 1826 until her death in 1853. During her reign, Portugal underwent significant political and social reforms, including the abolition of slavery and the establishment of a constitutional monarchy. The coin's design, which features an image of Queen Maria II on one side and the Portuguese coat of arms on the other, reflects the country's shift towards a more modern and progressive society.
