João V gold 12800 Reis (Dobra) 1727-B AU55 NGC, Bahia mint, KM141, Fr-50. 1st shield type. Difficult to encounter in any condition, and, despite not receiving a mint state designation, highly desirable in this grade. A wondrous gold issue featuring an exceptional strike and enchanting toning, along with a good deal of underlying luster. A few lightly scattered hairlines consistent with the grade are present, as well as some minor adjustment marks, but do not detract from its beauty.
