<p>[QUOTE="Hiddendragon, post: 1339874, member: 25270"]I'm also collecting the Brazilian Reis coins from the same time period you mention. I like the coins and they are low mintages yet usually pretty cheap. I don't have any special knowledge about them except what's in Krause. I understand if you don't want to shell out the money for a book, thinking you could spend that on coins instead, but you'll find yourself using it constantly. I probably look at mine almost every day and if you're buying coins online or trying to complete a set you really need it. Otherwise you might find yourself searching for months for a coin from a certain year, only to find out they didn't make one that year for some reason (and Brazil did skip some years). Try to find one used for sale on eBay or Amazon. I got the 2007 edition myself and it didn't cost as much. It would work fine for your purposes. You can't trust the values for bullion-type coins because it was written before silver spiked, but otherwise it's invaluable.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
