Comment
The pict is the coin Nr.16036 from INCM MuseumInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 4 Xerafins São Tomé - José I (Goa) 1775 coin is that it was minted during a time when Portuguese India was under Portuguese rule, and it features the portrait of King José I of Portugal on one side and the coat of arms of São Tomé and Principe on the other. This coin is a rare and valuable piece of numismatic history, with only a limited number of coins minted, making it a sought-after collector's item among numismatists and historians.
