TJsCoins Pillar of the Community United States 3229 Posts	Posted 08/20/2017 6:38 pm A friend sent this 960 Reis to PCGS. I like this type as they are often over struck, as this one is, on an 8 Reales. You can see the profile of Charles III? and shield, lion, pillar on the opposite side. Does anyone know why PCGS would not slab this coin? No Service / Refund, Why? Report this Post to the Staff

In general things that get a no service refund are either something they don't do, or their is something about the coin where they are worried that slabbing it could damage it/is to deformed to fit. In this case if I had to guess it would be that they just weren't comfortable authenticating it with how jacked up the center is Report this Post to the Staff

Here in Brazil we have catalogs with every die used to produce certain coins, and the 960 Reis are the most known ones. I classified it as 2B (it doesn't mean much without the catalog...). PCGS make mistakes even when the mint letter is visible, so I guess that they didn't want to take a chance with your friend's coin (Check this Rio coin classified as Bahia: https://coins.ha.com/itm/brazil/wor...ption-071515 ) Report this Post to the Staff
