João V gold 2 Escudos (3200 Reis or 1/2 Peça) 1734 AU53 NGC, Lisbon mint, KM220.9, Fr-88. A highly attractive specimen of this challenging issue, which remains notably more detailed than the "typical" circulated example and imbued with a fetching orange-gold tone over gleaming features. Satin brilliance grips the peripheral legends, while faint hints of adjustment are noted to João's head and crossing diagonally into the reverse crowned arms.
