First Section:
1. "In September the 7th of 1822, Dom Pedro I proclaimed independence, creating the Brazilian Empire, which lasted until 1889, when it became a republic, that still remains to this day." to "In September the 7th of 1822, Dom Pedro I proclaimed independence, creating the Brazilian Empire, which lasted until 1889 when it became a republic, that remains to this day."

Empire:

1. "In 1822, first year of the Empire, one of Brazil's most important coin was minted: The Coronation Piece." to "In 1822, the first year of the Empire, one of Brazil's most important coin was minted: The Coronation Piece."

2. "The imperial Réis were minted in copper, bronze, copper-nickel, silver and gold, generally carrying the emperor's effigy or the empire's coat." to "The imperial Réis were minted in copper, bronze, copper-nickel, silver, and gold, generally carrying the emperor's effigy or the empire's coat."
Wow, what an improvement.

There is only one mistake in the whole text and that you haven't seen: "one of Brazil's most important coin was minted". This must be plural: "one of Brazil's most important coins was minted".

Stop nitpicking and limit yourself to correct real typos and mistakes.
Actually there is one more mistake, "In September" should be "On September" but I agree it is nitpicking and I would not call for such fixes unless I noticed them when calling for major changes to the same page. Also, as for change 2, "silver and gold" to silver, and gold", that is not an error just a preference for what is known as the serial comma or the Oxford comma (comma placed before "and" in a series is required only if there is another item with an "and" before it earlier in the series: "bronze, copper, nickel and aluminum, gold, and silver". You could spend a lifetime nitpicking such usage and not accomplish any improvement in understanding of the text.
