OK, it's not one I should be looking for, but I liked the design, and the fact that it was stuck over a Carolus IIII 8 reales. Part of the king's name and ordinal is clearly visible - I didn't managed to get the date though (mostly because the big cross from the other side of the coin is inverted where the date should be) Hope you like it :) Mathieu Edited by MathieuMa 01/21/2012 4:19 pm Report this Post to the Staff

jfransch Pillar of the Community United States 1801 Posts	Posted 01/21/2012 5:16 pm I have always liked this series, not for the 960 Reis coins but to attempt to identify the host coins they were struck over. There was a nice thread on these a year or so back, fascinating coins. Report this Post to the Staff
