Joao V gold 20000 Reis 1724-M MS63 NGC, Vila Rica mint, KM117, Russo-248, Gomes-105.01. Choice Uncirculated with highly lustrous surfaces, few surface marks and sharply struck details. A most impressive specimen of the initial, key date of this massive and iconic colonial gold type, and a worthy candidate to represent the issue in a quality-seeking refined cabinet. An MS62 example of this date that we recently sold hammered at $24,000 (Heritage 4/2015, lot 29404).
Estimate: 30000-40000 USD
