The above pict is a PhotoShop work and migth not be 100% correctInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 30 Réis coin from Portuguese India is that it was minted during the reign of Maria I and Pedro III, who were the first monarchs to rule Portugal and its colonies simultaneously. This coin was minted in Goa, which was a Portuguese colony in India at the time, and it features the effigies of both monarchs on opposite sides. The coin was made of silver and weighs 0.6 grams, making it a rare and valuable collector's item for numismatists today.
