Historical Context: This LXXX Reais, the 'Real Português Dobrado', was issued by Portugal under King João III, "The Pious," between 1555 and 1557. This period marked the zenith of the Portuguese Empire, a global maritime power. Its issuance reflects a sophisticated monetary system supporting a burgeoning economy and imperial administration. As a silver denomination, it played a crucial role in daily commerce, demonstrating the kingdom's economic stability and strategic use of precious metals.

Artistry: Struck at the Lisbon mint, the design of this Real Português Dobrado exemplifies the late Gothic-early Renaissance transition in Portuguese numismatics. While specific engravers are rarely documented, the style reflects prevailing artistic conventions. The coin prominently features the iconic Cross of the Order of Christ, often adorned with "washers" or annulets, serving as mint marks or decorative elements. The obverse typically displays the crowned royal arms of Portugal, symbolizing monarchical authority.

Technical/Grading: Crafted from .917 fine silver, weighing 7.34 grams and 30mm, this coin's technical qualities are typical for mid-16th century issues. High-points for wear or strike weakness include the center and tips of the Order of Christ cross, the royal crown's raised elements, and the escutcheons. "Washers" may also show strike inconsistencies. Planchet irregularities, such as minor flan cracks, are common, reflecting manual striking methods. A strong strike would show full definition on all raised devices.
