Pedro II gold 5000 Reis 1859 AU Details (Cleaned) NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM470, LMB-642, Guimaraes-1859-1.1. First type, crown of thorns. Final year of issue. Mintage: 493. A minuscule mintage when compared to other dates in the same series, several of which exceeded production totals of 20,000 and even 40,000. Dressed in a subtle amber tone, indicative of a cleaning long ago, this gently circulated piece will likely garner the attention of Brazilian type collectors. From the Petropolis Collection, Part III
