Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin Pinto - João V (Lisboa, Rio and Minas mints) 1718-1748 from Portugal made of Gold (.917) weighing 1.075 g is that it was minted during the reign of King John V of Portugal, who was known for his lavish spending and love of art and architecture. This coin, which was used as a standard circulation coin during his reign, features an image of the king on one side and the Portuguese coat of arms on the other. Despite being made of gold, the coin was not particularly valuable at the time, as the value of gold was not as high as it is today. However, due to its historical significance and rarity, it is now considered a valuable collector's item among numismatists.
