One interesting fact about the 10 Réis - João Prince (Goa) ND (1799-1826) coin from Portuguese India is that it was minted during a time of great change and turmoil in the region. The coin was issued during the reign of João, Prince of Portugal, who ruled from 1799 to 1826. During this time, the Portuguese Empire was facing challenges from other European powers, and the coinage system was in flux. Despite these challenges, the 10 Réis coin remained a widely used denomination in Portuguese India and is still sought after by collectors today.
