BRAZIL. 4000 Reis, 1823-R. Rio de Janeiro Mint. Pedro I. NGC MS-62.
Fr-110; KM-369.1; LMDB-593a. Mintage: 20,895. Variety without stop after date. This seldom encountered variant appears to be more elusive than one would think based on the relative value difference between both varieties, being valued roughly 10%-20% more in LDMB than the variety with the stop. In a search of auction archives, we were unable to locate another example without the stop but found thirteen records of examples with the stop after the date. This highly attractive survivor boasts a sharp strike with crisp, bold and frosty devices complemented by brilliant lustrous surfaces with areas of flashiness offering this gleaming representative its pleasing appearance. A difficult type to locate struck this well and this nicely preserved that it is destined for a fine cabinet of a discerning collector.
Estimate: $2000 - $2500
