Yes I have three now but want more, more MORE :yahoo: You could always call in and try and sweet talk me :blush2: But yes they aren't very common really and the one's on feebay are a fortune so maybe I should get mine slabbed :scratch_one-s_head: Anyone sees any around please let me know as I might be interested :winkextra:

That Elephant one looks nice :good:
What are the dates for these coins Mark?

[ausjack]

BEAUTIFUL :drooling: I got the second and third in brissie but I don't have the elephant so let me know if you ever want to get rid of them as doubles would be nice as well I really like how they are the same but then slightly different if you really look at them because the one you have on the bottom has bigger noses on the people than mine does.

Nice.  I like yours better than mine.  I think the centre figure of my three figure pagoda looks like Rose off of Masterchef.

here is my 2nd - just have to crossover for my registry set




jose 1 6400reis / peca/ 4 escudo / half johanna - 1775L

obverse is fully lustrous and some small areas on reverse a tad duller,result of rusty dies
the coin shows adjustment marks, minting staff adhered to weight tolerances  hence the light file marks, a regular trait.

now there is something about those lines across both sides
weren't they some sort of shaving to keep the weight/s right?
