Encadernação da época inteira de pele, com nervos e ferros a ouro na lombada. Corte das folhas carminado. Ilustrado com uma magnífica gravura com as armas reais de Portugal de D. João V no centro da folha de rosto, com cabeções constituídos por vinhetas no início da Taboada e por xilogravura com as armas reais ao centro na página 1, com belas iniciais decoradas (no início do alvará real) e alegórica na página 1. Está decorada também com um conjunto de florões de remate em que os mais notáveis pela beleza e dimensões são os do fim da taboada e os daa páginas 27, 69, 119, 123 e 134. Exemplar com a encadernação desgastada, em especial nas coifas e junto às charneiras, com alguma perda de pele.

Com anotações em letra coeva nas folhas de guarda, em que a anotação na folha de guarda posterior tem a data de 1728. As páginas preliminares contêm a Taboada, ou seja, um pormenorizado índice dos capítulos, e o alvará real que explica os motivos da sua elaboração e ordena a observância das suas determinações.

Em 1751 um decreto Real recomendou a observância deste Regimento. A Casa dos Contos foi um órgão de ordenação e fiscalização das receitas e despesas da Coroa, que existiu desde o século XIII até 1761, quando foi substítuido pelo Erário Régio. A partir de 1627 passou a desempenhar as funções de organismo central de contabilidade e de tribunal fiscal de última instância. O mais antigo Regimento dos Contos data de 5 de Julho de 1378. Seguiram-se outros em 1419, 1434, 1560 e 1627. Uma parte das suas funções são hoje desempenhadas pelo Tribunal de Contas. [EN] In folio. 29x20 cm.
