Hi everybody. I am Brazilian and relatively new on coin collecting. I live in US and travel frequently to Brazil. Of course I summoned all friends and family to look for coins there and I actually had a nice surprise. I came back from Brazil not only with a huge collection but a lot of coins to swap. I am not interested on making money out of this so I am looking for swapping. Right now I collect US, UK and Euro coins (besides Brazilian ones). I have all sort of Brazilian coins, from 1800 to date, and all the Brazilian different currencies. Again, I am not a professional trader and not even a professional collector (yet...). Just got this batch of Brazilian coins. The one I have most is a 1924 Bronze 2000 Réis (have around 130 of them). But I also have some nice other Réis, Cruzeiros, New Cruzeiros, Cruzados, Reais... Anyway, answer me here in case you are interested. I am travelling again to Brazil in January and I hope to come with a new batch. Tks! Ricardo.
I would post this under "Trades", which is the only place in which you can trade on Cointalk. https://www.cointalk.com/forums/trades/ I hope you are able to get a good trade, right now I already have a quite a few Brazilian coins so I will pass for now
l love older Brazilian coin designs. The 1924 2000 reis is 50% silver, but they end up looking bronze colored after they have lot of circulation and wear.
Those are called "Vicentinas" as they mark 400 years foundation of Vila de São Vicente which would later become the city of São Paulo, currently the biggest and most important Brazilian city. Nice!
A few of mine (and those actually are for swapping) 2,000 Réis - 1922 - this is for 100 years of Brazil Independence 400 Réis - 1940 by setti posted Dec 13, 2015 at 10:34 PM 2,000 Réis - 1928 by setti posted Dec 13, 2015 at 10:34 PM 1,000 Réis - 1939 by setti posted Dec 13, 2015 at 10:32 PM
