João V gold 12800 Reis (Dobra) 1730-B AU55 NGC, Bahia mint, KM141, LMB-101. Second Shield type. An enviable representative of this renowned "Dobra" rarity featuring near-mint preservation and surfaces that carry a sheen of warm golden luminosity, confirming only a minimal degree of time spent in circulation. Delightfully bold, with raised rims framing the central features to yield a striking visual display, presented in conjunction with a well-balanced strike that leaves little to be desired.
