Purchasing a gorgeous 1817 R Brazil 960 Reis from John Agre last fall in Baltimore and subsequently buying David Andre Levy’s excellent book on the series has propelled me pretty far into the rabbit hole.
Frankly this looks to be one of the uglier coins I’ve ever purchased in my adult life……but I love the pronouncement/obviousness of the undertype. First sun face I’ve come across and excited to have it in my undertype collection.

I really do not recall seeing one as well defined as this.
Experience the World through Numismatics...it's more than you can imagine.
That over strike is awesome.
Love all the sun face coins, they make a nice themed set. Cool undertype.
That’s pretty cool!

Very cool. Coolest undertype I can recall seeing for some time.
This is my only sunface. (Yeah, not the same sorta thing, I know.)
Collector since 1976. On the CU forums here since 2001.
