João V gold 2000 Reis 1723/2-R AU Details (Bent) NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM112, LMB-156, Guimaraes-1723-1.1. First type. The first year and key-date of this short lived issue, presenting crisp motifs with blushes of luster and an interesting clash of dies where incuse parts of the cross are visible under the shield, the overdate due to utilizing a 1722 die from the Bahia mint. From a somewhat crude striking, likely the origin of the wavy surfaces that assigned the "Bent" designation, since we have located other pieces with quite similar flan waviness.
Ex. Sotheby's Genève "Monnaies du Brésil" (November 1987, Lot 147) From the Petropolis Collection, Part I
