Selections from the Eric P. Newman Collection of World Coins. Joao V gold 800 Reis 1731-M, Minas Gerais mint, KM120, Fr-59, Russo-260, VG Details (Obverse Scratched) NGC. A collectible example of this rare denomination and mint with heavily circulated surfaces that hold a diagonal scratch running from 2:00 on the obverse rim to the center of Joao's portrait. Still, very comparable to the RLM specimen and about as nice as these come.
Estimate: 400-600 USD
