Maria II gold 6400 Reis (Peça) 1835 MS63+ NGC, Lisbon mint, KM407, Fr-141. A wonderful example of this scarce one-year type, with a reported mintage of only 2,989 pieces. Rare so fine, with buttery fields of golden reflectivity that border Prooflike in appearance and very little in the way of contact marks, save for a nick on the lower cheek of the obverse portrait. A piece that immediately draws this cataloguer's eye from a group of other golden issues.
