Guimaraes Notes 2 Known
João V gold 6400 Reis (Peça) 1734-B AU53 NGC, Bahia mint, KM151 (Rare), LMB-134, Guimaraes-1734-1.1 (2 known). Fourth shield. An extremely elusive issue, Guimaraes noting 2 examples known to him, the piece offered showing remarkably original surfaces with satin luster emanating from the crisp surfaces. The sole piece graded by either NGC or PCGS, entirely missing from the RLM, Eliasberg and other major collections, a prize for the advanced Brazilian type collectors.
