Description from the seller

BRAZIL. Bahia. 960 Reis. 1816. John VI Prince Regent (1799-1816).

- Value: 960 Reis.
- Year: 1816.
- Reign: John VI Prince Regent (1799-1816).
- Inscriptions: Obverse: STAB. SUBQ. SIGN. NAT. Reverse: OANNES.D.G.PORT.P.REGENS.ET.BRAS.D.
- Grade: UNC Details (NGC).

This 960 Reis was minted in Bahia using Spanish eight-reales as planchets. It features the characteristic design of a globe with the Cross of the Order of Christ on the obverse, and the Portuguese royal coat of arms on the reverse. The legend "Stabilis sub quā signa natio" (Stable under which the nation is born) reflects the importance of Portugal in maritime expansion. A historically significant coin issued during the period when the Portuguese court moved to Brazil, marking the beginning of its role as a kingdom of the Portuguese Empire.

Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
