João V gold 12800 Reis 1730-B AU Details (Surface Hairlines) NGC, Bahia mint, KM141, LMB-O101. 2nd shield type. An impressive selection despite the details assignment, showing amber hues throughout the golden surfaces and even wear across the central features. Scattered handling marks are essentially expected at this level and evidence of hairlining blends well into the underlying tone. Rare, and very much coveted in all conditions, this Dobra struck at the Bahia mint eludes many important collections and even when presented in a details classification, should not be overlooked.
Estimate: 15000-20000 USD
