[QUOTE="Clinker, post: 173628, member: 6229"]The Rupublic of Brazil has created quite a few "interesting", if not "desirable", coins during the 20th century. Most of these were made before the first Reform Coinage in 1932. One that interests me is the decision to use a medal rotation for all coins minted in the years 1936, '37 and '38 except for the 1938 denominations honoring Dr. Getulio Vargas. 1936-1938 100 Reis [URL="http://www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-536&desc=Brazil%20km536%20100%20Reis%20(1936-1938"]www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-536&desc=Brazil%20km536%20100%20Reis%20(1936-1938[/URL]) Another of interest is the decision to use medallic rotations on all 1932 denominations except on KM#520, the 1932 400 reis pieces. 1932 100 Reis [URL="http://www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-527&desc=Brazil%20km527%20100%20Reis%20(1932)%20Cazique%20Tibirica"]www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-527&desc=Brazil%20km527%20100%20Reis%20(1932)%20Cazique%20Tibirica[/URL] Another interesting bit of numismatic history is the decision to mint copper-nickel 20 Reis coins for the years 1918, '19 and '20 with a dot between 2 & 0 in the denomination number on the reverse AND, at the same time, strike copper-nickel 20 Reis coins for years 1919-1935 without the dot between the 2 & 0. Still another wonder is the miniscule striking of 100 coins for circulation in 1935 of 20 Reis and 50 Reis denominations. Then there's the 18-sided 400 Reis (KM#545), the 20-sided 300 Reis (KM#546), the 22-sided 400 Reis (KM#547), and the 24-sided 2,000 Reis (KM#542 & 548). KM#545 [URL="http://www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-545&desc=Brazil%20km545%20200%20Reis%20(1938-1942"]www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-545&desc=Brazil%20km545%20200%20Reis%20(1938-1942[/URL]) KM#546 [URL="http://www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-546&desc=Brazil%20km546%20300%20Reis%20(1938-1942"]http://www.worldcoingallery.com/countries/coin.php?image=img8/27-546&desc=Brazil%20km546%20300%20Reis%20(1938-1942[/URL]) Still another consideration is why were 646,000 pattern 1914 copper-nickel 400 Reis coins struck. And what about the 1922 500 Reis error coins (KM#521.2) and the 1,000 Reis (KM#522.2) with BRASIL spelled BBASIL? Does the fact that in 1922 there were 1,500,000 silver 2,000 Reis coins struck with part of them in .900 fineness and part in .500 fineness raise your curiosity?
