BRITISH WEST INDIES. Leeward Islands. Imitation 6400 Reis (Joe), 17xx. Maria I & Pedro III. EXTREMELY FINE. cf. Fr-76; cf. KM-199.2; Gordon-pg.40/3. Weight: 10.84 gms. A nicely preserved and well executed West Indies imitation 6400 Reis (Joe) of a Maria I and Pedro III of slightly debased style that has been significantly cut down, with most of the date and mint mark off of the flan. The edging device is slightly blundered. The surfaces are free of distracting marks, displaying a deep golden color with minor earthen deposits amongst the devices and crevasses that adds to its originality.
