PORTUGAL. 80 Reis (Dobrado), ND (1555-57). Lisbon Mint. Joao III. PCGS AU-58.
Cf. Gomes-92. Obverse: Crowned IO III monogram above LXXX (denomination); Reverse: Greek cross, with annulet in each quarter. Exceptionally attractive and alluring, this hammered issue features all details rather well incised and presented, with the centering having been done extraordinarily well also. Most pleasingly toned, with some hints of brilliance remaining in the protected areas and just the slightest degree of gentle handling upon the high points.
Estimate: $1000 - $1500
