João Prince Regent 960 Reis 1815-R XF45 NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM307.3 (Rare), LMB-425B. Alternated legends variety. Struck over a Pillar 8 Reales. An incredibly difficult subvariety for this date, with the reverse legend reading STAB - NATA - SUBQ - SIGN, instead of the standard STAB - SUBQ - SIGN - NATA; Livro das Moedas do Brasil values this subtype over 32 times more highly than the standard issue. According to NGC's census, only 3 such pieces have been certified by the grading service, this being only the third piece we have offered.
