I searched many months for this coin.
So I found this one and I will keep it in my collection.
It is not easy to find. Even in a bad condition.
A 10 réis from Madeira Island

I keep this poor thing,
I believe this coin was used for a target pellet gun shooting practice .
I like it because it reminds me of the Count of Monte Christo, one of my favorite books,
the count practices shooting the small caliber air pistol in his room. The episode in the book I recall he used a playing card for a target and could shoot each club on an eight of clubs from 15 feet away.
Sherlock Holmes did the same. His target was a disk of cork.
So I imagine an idle gentleman of the 19th century set this coin in a chink on his mantlepiece or something like that and scored pretty well, then set down to drink Port wine and smoke Turkish tobacco from a hookah

I think the idle gentleman went in to drink his port wine because he was upset that his horse stepped on this one of the same year.
Its ugly as requested but I just don't have the heart to destroy it. Maybe someday somebody will love it and appreciate it again.
