<p>[QUOTE="panzerman, post: 2379578, member: 77704"]Not much common sense in Brazil. You should never handle a coin without special coin handling gloves, even then as delicate as possible. That is why i post photos with coins in safety of coinflip, the less handling the better. The Lissner Collection held by CNG Auctions/St. James had a wonderfull array of post Colonial Escudo coinage from Argentina/Bolivia/Chile/Colombia/N. Peru/S. Peru/Ecuador. Numisma Auctions in Portugal have nice quality Brazil. I won a 4000 Reis 1719-B Bahia in Sobrera=UNC for 1600E, the same dated coin slabbed MS-65 Heritage went for $6000US. Mine is better quality, way BETTER price. Same they had a Portugal 400 Reis Joao V MS-66, Numisma had a Quasi/Sobrera in last auction, that looks way better then MS-66 I got it for quarter of price. So, one has to shop around for good buys/grading.</p><p>john[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
