João Prince Regent bronze Pattern 40 Reis 1811 MS65 Brown NGC, Lisbon mint, KM, Gomes-E4.01. Gem Uncirculated with essentially full mint luster and surfaces free of all but the most trivial handling marks. Since the edge is obscured by the slab, the cataloguer can only presume the present piece is the one described in Gomes as "bronze, light color, plain edge" instead of one the much rarer varieties with an edge design. A handsome and very scarce pattern, conditionally very rare in this superb quality.
