João V gold 6400 Reis 1750/40-B AU58 NGC, Bahia mint, KM151, LMB-Unl. The final year of issue for João V's coinage, and an extremely rare unlisted overdate. At first appearing like a firm Mint State, this piece only reveals light rub to the high points on closer inspection, certainly rendering it premium for the grade; intensely lustrous, lemon-gold brilliance dances across the crisply-struck planchet encountering very few scratches or contact marks along the way. An exceptional piece for its rarity and sublime eye appeal.
