Brazil 100 reis Tamandare KM-536 Mint Error MS65 PCGS CuNi coin 1936

The 1936 Brazil 100 Réis coin is a tribute to Admiral Joaquim Marques Lisboa, the Marquis of Tamandaré, one of Brazil’s most revered naval heroes. Struck in a CuNi alloy and graded MS65 by PCGS, this coin displays exceptional detail and luster. On the obverse appears a bold portrait of Admiral Tamandaré, his characteristic beard and uniform rendered in a stylized, almost sculptural form, with his name split on both sides of the bust — TAMAN and DARE. The reverse features a large anchor entwined with a chain, symbolizing naval strength and national security, surrounded by the denomination “100 RÉIS”, the inscription “BRASIL” above, and the date 1936 framed in decorative panels. Issued during the Vargas era, this coin honors the founder of the modern Brazilian Navy, whose leadership and patriotism helped forge Brazil’s maritime identity. With its nautical symbolism and rare mint error, this high-grade piece is both historically significant and visually striking.
