Just noticed that yours weighs only 3.5 grams, are you certain it's gold?

Just a question- what made you think your coin was from Mozambique?

At a mintage of 800 it is clearly rare. There is the issue of the counter stamp but being 208 years old and so scarce I would assume it is impossible to find ms examples,as the NGC has only graded up to xf. Hopefully that M doesn't lower the numismatic value much.

The M isn't original from the mint. Somebody will have an explanation for it, I'm curious now also.
