João V gold 12800 Reis (Dobra) 1729-R AU58 NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM140, LMB-195. A well-preserved example whose impressive condition is immediately evident in hand, a bright sun-gold glow igniting the fields in lustrous brilliance carrying equally to both the obverse and reverse surfaces. Only mild surface friction establishes the grade, while sharp rims provide a pleasing visual frame to the central motifs, a generally sound strike leaving only slight softness to the lowest part of the reverse shield.
