Portugal. 2 ½ Escudos 1951 - NGC MS64

PORTUGAL. Lisbon. 2.5 Escudos. 1951. - Value: 2.5 Escudos. - Year: 1951. - Inscriptions: REPÚBLICA PORTUGUESA surrounding a sailing caravela and the date at the bottom; on the reverse, the national Portuguese shield over the armillary sphere with the value 2$50. - Grade: MS64 (NGC). Circulation coin of the Portuguese Republic issued during the Estado Novo period, belonging to the well-known commemorative series with a maritime theme. The obverse features a caravel with sails spread, advancing over the sea, a direct symbol of Portugal's naval and exploratory tradition, with a dynamic design and very well balanced. The reverse shows the national shield superimposed on the armillary sphere, a historic element deeply linked to Portuguese identity, with excellent relief definition and great field cleanliness. The specimen stands out for its exceptional state of preservation, with intense original luster, very attractive silvery tone and fully sharp details, qualities that fully justify its high MS64 grade and place it among the best-preserved specimens of this issue. Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to leave absolutely clear that I do ship from Spain, which means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or inside EU that has special tax agreement (example: Canary Islands), it might be stopped in your local customs and they might ask you to pay taxes. This is a customs legal procedure and it is completely out of our control. Thanks for your understanding.
