Description

João Prince Regent 640 Reis 1812-M AU58 NGC, Minas Gerais mint, KM256.3, LMB-435. Struck over a Jose I 600 Reis from Bahia (cf. KM179 for type, date uncertain). By far the finest representative of this mint-date combination to have been brought to auction in recent memory, with examples edging on Mint State proving excessively challenging due to frequent cleaning and mishandling. The only other example that we have handled since last offering this exact specimen in 2021 was in August 2023, when we offered a VF35 example. This particular piece showcases a very sound strike, which has obliterated much of its undertype on the obverse, with a russet envelope tone encroaching from the rims. Ex.
