João V gold 20000 Reis (Dobrão) 1724-M MS63 NGC, Minas Gerais mint, KM117, LMB-248. Instantly recognizable, though largely unobtainable, by enthusiasts of Brazilian numismatics as the key date within one of the most-coveted series, the massive 20000 Reis emissions from the reign of João V. Full of mint bloom with surfaces that rise to the level of Choice, in part because of the paucity of marks or wisping, this stellar example oozes with brilliance and falls just one point short of the census peak. Struck in the province of Vila Rica, where the Portuguese extracted most of the Brazilian gold, this short-lived issue departed from the duodecimal system that included the 12,800 Réis coin as its largest denomination. Believed to be one of, if not the largest gold type ever struck for circulation purposes, it's undoubtedly an imposing piece. HID07901242017 www.HA.com/TexasAuctioneerLicenseNotice
