Portugal
Sebastião I gold 500 Reis (Cruzado) ND (1557-78) AU55 NGC, Lisbon mint, Fr-41, Gomes-57.12. 3.77gm. A seemingly scarcer variety, with "PORTVGA" spelled out in the legends. The fields are lustrous, the devices mostly well defined except in a small spot to the upper right of the shield. A wholly worthy representation of this desirable type.
