Comment
The above pict is from the coin "INCM 22690 " (Museum from Lisbon Mint House)Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pardau - Maria I (Headdress, Goa) coin is that it features a unique design element - a headdress worn by Maria I, the Queen of Portugal, which is not commonly seen on other coins from the same era. This design element was added to the coin to signify the queen's status and power.
