<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Trish, post: 2230156, member: 75691&quot;]First off-my apologies for pic quality and some coin quality.&nbsp; I have countermarks/stamps on our Brazilian and Costa Rican coins.&nbsp; Honestly I can&#039;t tell if the first one-1699- is counter-marked to double value or not.&nbsp; The 1787 20 reis is marked to double value.&nbsp; The 1827 is marked to change value to 20 reis, and the 1834 MXX is counter-marked for the state of Maranhao and 20 reis (coin shortages).&nbsp; The next pic is a 1892HEATON (why &#039;heaton&#039;?) Costa Rican 25 centimos that was counter-marked for 50 centimos and re-dated 1923.&nbsp; The last pic is a 1847 1/2 real with the countermark of Habilitada Po El Gobierno (enable the government?) around a lion, and it&#039;s cracked <img src="styles/default/xenforo/clear.png" class="mceSmilieSprite mceSmilie3" alt=":(" unselectable="on" unselectable="on" />&nbsp; I&#039;m new so I hope these aren&#039;t the usual suspects to share....</p><p><br /></p><p><br /></p><p>[ATTACH=full]438247[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438248[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438249[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438250[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438251[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]438252[/ATTACH][/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
