Brazil
João Prince Regent "Special Series" 960 Reis 1816-R XF Details (Cleaned) ANACS, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM313, LMB-429. A handsome yet lightly circulated representative tempered by a past cleaning that has since re-toned with pleasing amber silhouettes. Struck to celebrate the promotion of Brazil from colony to united kingdom, it's considered by some to be the first commemorative coin struck in Brazil.
