| Beschrijving voorzijde | Bare-headed effigy of Emperor Pedro II facing left, with fine portrait detail in high relief. The surrounding legend reads PETRUS II.D.G.C.IMP. ET PERP.BRAS.DEF., distributed along the upper and lower periphery of the coin. The date appears in the exergue or immediately below the portrait. The field is smooth and unadorned, allowing the imperial portrait to dominate the design. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Brazil's highest gold denomination under Pedro II, the 20$000 réis saw its role shift dramatically after the abolition of the slave trade in 1850 redirected capital flows and briefly stabilized imperial finances. Production was never consistent — the Rio de Janeiro mint struggled with refining capacity throughout the 1850s and 1860s, and annual output varied wildly as a result.
The long date range obscures meaningful interruptions. No pieces were struck in several years across that span, and the final issues of the 1880s came as the Empire itself was collapsing under abolitionist pressure and military discontent. Pedro II was deposed in November 1889.
