10 Centavos Coins 1915–1940

The 10 Centavos coins issued by the Portuguese Republic between 1915 and 1940 comprise three distinct systems, reflecting the economic adjustments and monetary reforms of the early twentieth century. The first system corresponds to the single silver issue of 1915, created under the Decree with force of Law of May 22, 1911 and Law 220 of July 30, 1911, later withdrawn from circulation by Decree‑Law 19871 of June 9, 1931. The second system, in cupronickel, includes the 1920 and 1921 issues, established by Law 990 of June 25, 1920 and withdrawn from circulation on May 1, 1929 under Ordinance 6102 of April 18, 1929. The third system, in bronze, covers the issues of 1924, 1925, 1926, 1930, 1938 and 1940, created by Decree 9718 of May 23, 1924 and withdrawn from circulation on July 1, 1949 according to Decree‑Law 37120 of October 27, 1948. The succession of these three formats — silver, cupronickel and bronze — clearly illustrates the structural changes in the Portuguese economy and the adaptation of circulating coinage to the financial conditions of the period, making this denomination particularly relevant for collectors and researchers of Republican numismatics.

Portugal, 10 centavos 1924 bronze coin of the Portuguese Republic, (UNC), Gomes R.09.01, World Coins Portugal KM 573

€150.00

The 10 centavos 1924 bronze coin of the Portuguese Republic represents the first issue of this decimal type, created under Decree No. 9,718 of 23 May 1924. Listed in World Coins Portugal as KM#573 and in the Alberto Gomes catalogue (2006, 2013 and 2021 editions) as R.09.01, it belongs to the series of coins of the First Portuguese Republic (1910–1926), minted at the Lisbon Mint.

Struck in bronze (Cu 960‰ – Zn 40‰), it features a 22 mm module, 4 g weight, reeded edge, and a rim composed of a plain circle followed by a beaded ornament. The obverse displays the facial value “10 CENTAVOS” surrounded by the legend REPUBLICA PORTUGUESA ✤ 1924 ✤, while the reverse shows the allegorical bust of the Republic wearing a Phrygian cap, designed by Alves do Rego (obverse) and Francisco dos Santos (reverse).

The 1924‑dated issue had a mintage of 1,210,000 pieces, forming part of a broader production of 43,663,620 coins struck between 1924 and 1940. Circulation ceased under Decree‑Law No. 32,648 of 29 January 1943, and the type was officially withdrawn on 1 July 1949 by Decree‑Law No. 37,120 of 27 October 1948. This coin is one of the most representative bronze issues of the late First Republic and early subsequent period.
