pirgah Valued Member Brazil 115 Posts	Posted 05/09/2018 3:28 pm 1730R Brazil 12800 Reis. Sorry for scanned pictures. I know that´s very difficult to grade it, but unfortunately it´s an auction coin so I have only these photos. My main worry is: Coin was cleaned long ago? Any sign of mounting?

paxbrit Pillar of the Community United States 992 Posts	Posted 05/14/2018 11:08 am I have serious problems with just the photograph of this coin, it does not appear to be gold, and has a granular surface. It screams, 'don't bid on me'. Report this Post to the Staff

chafemasterj Pillar of the Community United States 6503 Posts	Posted 05/16/2018 07:24 am I see what your saying Dorado. Spacing on several aspects of it are off and it just looks wrong. Thank you for the side-by-side. Check out my counterstamped Lincoln Cent collection: http://goccf.com/t/303507 Report this Post to the Staff

jecz79 Pillar of the Community Portugal 523 Posts	Posted 10/16/2024 9:49 pm I am answering this one to correct old mistakes done here. I assure you there was nothing bad visible in this 1730 dobra from Rio. It my opinion it was genuine. Only the high wear prevents me from saying that it is genuine for sure. The obverse matches perfectly with a well documented die that has the date amended from 1729. The reverse does not match perfectly with any I saw documented but is the correct style for the year. There is nothing wrong about the design of the reverse. Two different reverses with the oblique and straight castles in the shield are well known. Both are genuine. Report this Post to the Staff
