Comment
The picture is the coin Nr 5942 from INCM MuseumInteresting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern Xerafim de Goa - Maria II (Pattern) 1834 from Portuguese India made of Silver weighing 5.1g is that it is a rare and unique coin that was never officially released into circulation. It was minted as a pattern coin, which means it was created as a prototype or sample coin to test the design and production process, but it was never approved for mass production. As a result, only a small number of these coins were minted, making them highly sought after by collectors.
