Amazing that the Portuguese Crown jewels survived the invading French and then the Revolution and overthrow of the monarchy!

Were the Portuguese kings ever crowned ? Or just acclaimed by the Cortes with the regalia on display as in Spain?

The Kings of Portugal were acclaimed in a ceremony similar to that of Spain.

The Acclamation ceremony of King João IV of Portugal in 1640 was also the last time a Portuguese Monarch wore a crown.
