| Aanvullende informatie |
Portugal's copper coinage in the late seventeenth century was in chronic disorder — debased, counterfeited, and wildly inconsistent in weight. The Gomes P2 E2 designation marks this as a pattern piece, struck to propose or document a standardized III Réis type under Pedro II, who had only formally assumed the throne in 1683 after years ruling as regent. Whether this design was seriously considered for circulation or produced purely as a reference strike is unresolved; surviving examples are rare enough that production quantities were clearly minimal.
Pedro II's reign saw repeated monetary reform attempts, none fully successful before his death in 1706.
