Comment
Another coin from an auction catalog (Numisma-Lisbon-2008)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the 60 Réis coin from Portuguese India is that it features a unique design element - the small armillary sphere - which represents the Portuguese Empire's maritime and navigational achievements during the reign of King João VI.
