Comment
the next photo is from the INCM and it is the coin that illustrates the Alberto Gomes catalogueInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Standard circulation coin 60 Réis - João Prince (Goa) ND (1799-1826) from Portuguese India made of Copper weighing 37 g is that it was minted during the reign of King João VI of Portugal, who also ruled as the King of Brazil from 1815 to 1822. This coin was part of a series of coins minted during his reign that featured the Portuguese royal family on one side and the coat of arms of Portugal on the other. The coin's design was meant to symbolize the unity of the Portuguese Empire and its colonies, including Portuguese India, where this coin was minted.
