Pedro II gold 2000 Reis 1700-(R) AU58 NGC, Rio de Janeiro mint, KM97, LMB-30, Guimaraes-1700-1a. "PORTVG.REX?" variety. Standing as the sole finest graded by either NGC or PCGS, at the cusp of Mint State, the example offered presents fully engraved motifs with hints of luster to the crevices and a nice coppery patina. Only the forth example we have managed to locate at auction in the last couple of decades, missing from the BES (Banco Espírito Santo) and Eliasberg collections, the Norweb specimen cataloged as XF and the RLM piece grading XF Details.
