Brazil
João V gold 20000 Reis 1727-M MS62 NGC, Minas Gerais mint, KM117, LMB-251. An entrancing selection of this largest gold type minted in colonial Brazil, preserved very near the peak of the certified population--indeed, we have offered only two graded finer previously. While some extremely mild handling admittedly bounds the designation, a quick rotation of the piece under light reveals a pervasive watery luster across the surfaces, with subtle evidence of die clashing observable around of I of IOANNES.
