João V gold 20000 Reis (Dobrão) 1727-M MS62 NGC, Minas Gerais mint, KM117, LMB-251. The final date of this special, large-format type. Besides the alluringly large gold planchet, this is a really beautifully designed and struck coin: exaggerated and well-centered dentils, big block letters of attractive font, and lines from the design that fit well to the eye. A type of coin with sustained interest to collectors in Mint State, this near-Choice specimen is well-worth a premium bid. 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. Ex.
