João IV 400 Reis ND (1642) MS62 NGC, Lisbon mint, KM52, Dav-4380, Gomes-97.04. 20.88gm. Unusually well-preserved, with even pewter surfaces finished in a mottled lilac undercurrent, with apparent striking weakness limiting the coin's visual appeal. Despite this, the present selection finds itself one of the finest Lisbon 400 Reis from the reign of João IV, with only a single certified higher, and sure to entice quality-minded collectors of early Portuguese coins.
