Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 30 Réis - João V (Dio) 1726 coin from Portuguese India is that it was minted during the reign of King John V of Portugal, who was known for his extensive reforms in the Portuguese colonies, particularly in India. The coin's design, which features the king's name and title in Latin, "Dio," and the Portuguese coat of arms, reflects the influence of Portuguese culture and rule in India during that time.
