Pedro II silver Pattern 1200 Reis 1841 AU Details (Scratches) NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM-Pn67, LMB-E115, Bentes-E30.03 (R3). An exciting offering and the first example of this reported Pattern-date that we have handled. In the course of our research, we have been unable to locate any examples at auction in the last several decades. Additionally, we have not found any other specimens in past sales records, aside from the coin plated in Livro das Moedas do Brasil. While well-defined in its features, as pointed out by the Norweb catalog, the strike itself appears more like that of the standard circulation issues of the period, with only its date distinguishing its Pattern status. Nevertheless, the offering retains a great clarity throughout, with no elements of the design left weakly rendered or underexpressed, all situated against a slate gray flan free of adjustment marks. A significant rarity within the Cruzado series, sure to inspire fierce bidding among even the most seasoned collectors of the series.
Ex. Norweb Collection (Spink America March 1997, Lot 1120)
