Coins of King Filipe II (1598-1621)

The coins of King Filipe II, known as “the Pious”, belong to the second phase of the Philippine Dynasty, during which Portugal maintained its own monetary identity despite the Iberian Union. Born in 1578, he ruled Portugal from 1598 to 1621, preserving Portuguese administration and ensuring the continuity of national coinage. The struck coins of his reign include emblematic types such as the XX reais (vintém), XXXX reais, half tostão and silver tostão, illustrating the technical and artistic development of Portuguese numismatics in the early 17th century. These issues are highly valued by collectors for their quality, diversity and the historical significance of the Philippine period.
