Pedro II gold 10000 Reis 1843 AU55 NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM457. Mintage: 544. The first example of this date we have offered, a testament to its scarcity resulting from an original mintage numbering only in the hundreds. Unusually textured, yet quite attractively so, with satiny surfaces toned to a warm gold-orange hue. Selections from the Paulistana Collection
