Comment
The above pict is from the only known coin and id the lot 23377 from INCM (Lisbon Mint House Museum)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 3 Réis - Luíz I (Pattern, Mumbai) 1871 from Portuguese India made of Gold weighing 1.9 g is that it is a rare and valuable coin that was minted during the reign of King Luís I of Portugal. It is considered a pattern coin, meaning that it was produced as a trial or sample coin and not intended for circulation. As a result, only a small number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors. Additionally, the fact that it is made of gold and has a relatively low weight of 1.9 grams makes it even more unique and valuable to collectors.
