João VI 40 Reis (Pataco) 1822 MS66 Brown NGC, Lisbon mint, KM370. An outstanding piece with virtually pristine surfaces, needle-sharp strike, and exhibiting a lovely brown patina with mint red along the peripheries. A survey of the NGC Census reveals that this coin is not only the finest of its type (KM370) when compared to stated numbers, but ties for the finest across every type in its denomination, a true testament to its conditional rarity!
