The X Réis - Pedro Prince Regent 1675-1677 coin from Portugal was minted during a time of great economic and political change in the country. The coin was introduced as part of a new currency system implemented by King Pedro II in 1675, which aimed to stabilize the Portuguese economy and simplify trade. The coin's design features an image of Prince Regent Pedro, who played an important role in the country's governance during this period.
