The first specimen was part of lot 23305 in Heritage sale 3020 (Long Beach, September 2012), where it sold for $1,292.50. The catalog description[1] noted, "Collection of Brazil Silver 80 Reis, a most useful group dating from 1696-1818 and including several scarce varieties. Grades are generally F-VF with a few better and a couple with damage." Silver eighty réis as a denomination are rather scarce and tho this date struck in Lisbon is listed as common, it is seldom seen. This type was issued 1787-96. Varieties include low crown (KM 219.1, shown here) and high crown (KM 219.2). It was the first issue since 1790 and the last until 1810. The introduction of the copper eighty réis relieved the need for this denomination.
