Portugal 5, 10, 20, 100, and 200 Reis 1890 to 1906

The picture shows a 10 reis, but the 5, 20, 100, and 200 reis coins look essentially the same, with Carlos on the front and a wreath on the back. There are a few good dates (listed below), but most of these coins are not particularly valuable. Here is a run-down of catalog values in US dollars. Remember that catalog value is higher than actual value. Use our Important Terminology page to understand how catalog values work.
