10 Centavos

正面描述	The Portuguese coat of arms is depicted centrally, composed of five escutcheons arranged in a cross formation, each charged with five silver bezants representing the five Moorish kings defeated at the Battle of Ourique. The shield is rendered in bold relief with a plain field. The circular legend REPVBLICA·PORTVGVESA arcs along the upper periphery in raised Latin characters, flanked by small star-shaped ornaments, with the date of issue displayed in the lower field between two additional star stops.

附加信息	Portugal's bronze 10 centavos series ran through nearly three decades of the Estado Novo dictatorship, a period when Salazar kept the escudo artificially stable through fiscal austerity so strict it bordered on deflationary. Low-denomination coins circulated hard and long under that regime — purchasing power was deliberately suppressed for the rural poor, and small change moved through hands constantly. The 1942 start date is telling: wartime metal pressures across Europe forced many nations to reformulate or abandon bronze entirely, yet Portugal, officially neutral and retaining colonial trade routes, managed to maintain the alloy throughout.
