Comment
The pict id the coin 5803 from INCM MuseumInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the 60 Réis coin from Portuguese India is that it was minted during the reign of King João V, who was known for his efforts to expand Portuguese trade and commerce, particularly in the East Indies. The coin's design features the king's crowned bust on one side and the coat of arms of Portugal on the other, symbolizing the connection between the Portuguese crown and its colonies in India.
