    This coin is dated 1774 but is counterstamped. I'm trying to figure out the denomination and I was a little confused by the Krause entries. I think it's either 20 or 40 reis but not sure which one. Anyone have some insight? 1774 1809 brazil 40 reis.jpg

    I'll have to measure later but it's not 40.

    My guess would be 10 reis countermarked to 20, which would be 31mm.

    That's probably correct.
