João V gold 6400 Reis 1750-R UNC Details (Saltwater Damage) NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM149, LMB-225. An appealing selection exhibiting a full strike and no wear, with a clear matte appearance where the surfaces' luster was muted by saltwater over time. We note a small scratch to the right of the King's bust, though this proves inconsequential to the eye appeal of this exciting satiny offering. From the patina on the coin we believe this selection may have been recovered from the Clive of India shipwreck.
