BRAZIL. 960 Reis, 1820-R. Rio de Janeiro Mint. Joao VI. NGC MS-62. KM-326.1; LDMB-478; Gomes-25.10. Overstruck on an uncertain date Peruvian 8 Reales of Ferdinand VII from the Lima Mint (KM-117.1). A well-struck and nearly-Choice Brazilian crown of satisfying originality and eye appeal. Leaving behind only traces of the undertype, the bold strike resulted in crisp detail and clean, lustrous fields. A subtle tone adds a vintage appeal without diminishing the coins argent freshness.
