Description from the seller
AZORES. Lisbon. 5 Réis. 1901. Carlos I (1889-1908).
- Value: 5 Réis.
- Reign: Carlos I (1889-1908).
- Year: 1901.
- Inscriptions: Obverse: CARLOS I REI DE PORTUGAL. Reverse: 5 · 1901.
- Grade: MS63RB (NGC).
5 Réis coin featuring Portugal’s crowned coat of arms, displayed on a cartouche of scrollwork and floral ornaments in a heraldic composition rooted in the Baroque tradition. The reverse shows the denomination among small floral motifs, within two leafy branches tied at the base, with the date below; both sides have a beaded border. The coin retains sharp details on the crown, escutcheons and castles, with no discernible circulation wear. The surfaces combine reddish copper luster with brown patina, consistent with the RB designation, and show scattered small dark spots and a few fine contact marks. Minted in Lisbon for the Azores during the reign of Carlos I, it belongs to the 1901 issue intended for circulation in the archipelago.
Disclaimer: For orders shipped outside the European Union, I want to make absolutely clear that I ship from Spain. This means that if the package is sent to any country outside the European Union, and/or to a location within the EU that has a special tax agreement (for example, the Canary Islands), it might be stopped by your local customs authorities, who may ask you to pay taxes. This is a legal customs procedure and is completely beyond our control. Thanks for your understanding.
