Brazil 1901

Not the best example you will find but I like it. And 50 half a dollar I am pleased.

Interesting coin Wayne! Thats a design I have not seen before. I think I like the off-centered nature of the reverse design, even though it is a bit disturbing. Not something you see very often on coins.

That's a pretty coin, and yours is in nice shape. Those are really hard to find in mint state, especially the 400 reis.

Thanks. This is a 100 and I typed my OP wrong.........meant I only paid a half dollar.
Some of the coin had lint on it but in general.......thats what it looks like

All three coins of that type -- the 100, 200 and 400 reis -- saw heavy circulation and apparently weren't saved in any quantities.

Mine is an NGC MS63, a very lucky find in a bulk lot of old dealer's stock that I submitted for grading. I'll see if I can post a picture.
