Pedro II gold 5000 Reis 1859 UNC Details (Obverse Cleaned) NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM470, LMB-642. A rare date in Pedro II's 5000 Reis series - one which saw only 493 examples struck - this compared to other dates in the same series, several of which exceeded 20,000 and even 40,000 produced. Mint State examples of this year are thus a particular prize to behold, and though this offering displays light hairlines on the obverse, these appear to be exceedingly light, leaving a stark mint brilliance to highlight the sharp devices on both faces.
