PORTUGAL. 1/2 Peca (3200 Reis or 2 Escudos), 1739. Lisbon Mint. Joao V. NGC AU-58.
Fr-88; KM-220.9; Gomes-122.13. A tough to locate denomination is any grade especially so in this state of preservation and as such should be considered VERY RARE. The piece exhibits a bold strike with good definition of the details and light signs of a handling consistent for the grade displaying light attractive honey gold tone throughout. Upon close inspection a small well placed staple scratch is noticed on the reverse somewhat hidden within the design elements now slightly subdued blending nicely with the rest of the coin mentioned for accuracy. Otherwise this handsome and nicely preserved survivor is a real treat for collectors with a good look certain to see spirited bidding from the specialist.
Estimate: $2500.00- $3500.00
