The second specimen was part of lot 23306 in Heritage sale 3020 (Long Beach, September 2012), where it sold for $1,410. The catalog description[1] noted, "Collection of Brazil 160 Reis, a very nice selection by date from 1695 to 1821. Grades range from VG to XF but are mainly in the Fine to VF category. A most unusual opportunity to acquire a collection of these fascinating coins at one time." Silver 160 réis as a denomination are somewhat scarce and tho this date struck in Lisbon is listed as common, it is seldom seen. The type was issued 1787-97 from Lisbon as would the rest of the 160 réis until 1810. This type comes in "high crown" (KM 220.2) and "low crown" (KM 220.1, shown here) varieties.

Recorded mintage: 62,000.

Specification: 4.45 g, .917 fine silver.

Catalog reference: KM 220.1.
