Comment
Interesting fact
The Pataco coin was the first coin to feature the portrait of King João VI, who ruled Portugal from 1816 to 1826. The coin was minted during a time of great change in Portugal, as the country was in the process of transitioning from a colonial power to a modern, constitutional monarchy. The coin's design reflects this change, with the king's portrait on one side and the coat of arms of Portugal on the other. This coin is a rare and valuable piece of Portuguese history, and it is highly sought after by collectors today.
