II. Mánuel (Manoel Maria Felipe Carlos Amélio Luís Miguel Rafael Gabriel Gonzaga Francisco de Assis Eugénio de Saxe-Coburgo-Gotha e Bragança) was born on November 15, 1889 in Lisbon. He was the last king of Portugal. His father, King Károly, and his brother, Lajos Fülöp, were assassinated in 1908, so he became the king. However, he could rule for only two years, because in 1910 the republican revolution overthrew his power. He was unable to suppress the revolution, and together with his mother, Queen Mária Amália, fled to England, where they lived for a while. II. On September 4, 1913, Mánuel married his second cousin, Princess Augusta Victoria of Hohenzollern-Sigmaringen, the daughter of Prince William. Although he had no children, he did not abdicate the Portuguese throne for a long time. However, Portugal has been a republic since 1910, so he could no longer inherit the throne either.

II. King Manuel of Portugal took the throne in 1908 after his father and brother were assassinated. His reign was short, lasting only two years, and he was overthrown by the republican revolution in 1910. During his minting, he followed the monetary system introduced in the 1890s, which used the monetary unit called the reis. 100, 50, 20 and 10 reis coins made of silver, as well as 5, 2.5 and 1 reis coins made of copper were minted among the circulation coins. The silver 100 reis coin introduced in 1909 is the most common coin II . From the reign of Manuel. The portrait of the king can be seen on the obverse of the coin, and the Portuguese coat of arms on the reverse. II. Manuel's coinage did not bring significant changes to Portugal's monetary system. The quality and appearance of the coins followed the standards introduced in previous years.
