Republic gold 10000 Reis 1909 MS63 NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM496, Fr-125, LMB-703. Mintage: 1,069. Semi-prooflike with a noticeable reflectivity in the fields and devices that are struck to needle sharpness. An undercurrent of amber tone and a choice level of preservation set this example apart from the competition, of which there is currently only a single example seen finer by NGC.
