Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 30 Réis - João V (Goa) 1726-1727 coin from Portuguese India is that it was minted during a time when the Portuguese Empire was at its peak, with Goa serving as the capital of Portuguese India. The coin's design features the image of King João V on one side and the coat of arms of Portugal on the other, symbolizing the strong connection between the two regions. Additionally, the fact that it was made of silver and weighs only 0.6 grams makes it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists.
