| Beschrijving voorzijde | A plain cross pattée occupies the central field of the flan, with arms extending nearly to the coin's irregular edge. The cross is boldly struck in high relief against a flat, unadorned field, with no legend or inscription present. The style is characteristic of crudely hammered Portuguese colonial copper coinage produced at the Ceilão (Ceylon) mint during the reign of João III. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The bazaruco was a low-denomination currency introduced by the Portuguese specifically for circulation in their Asian territories, calibrated to compete with the small copper coinages already embedded in local trade networks. Ceylon's mint operated under conditions that made die consistency difficult to enforce, and the fractional bazaruco denominations from this period are notoriously irregular in fabric — planchet splitting and off-center strikes are the rule rather than the exception. João III never visited his Eastern territories; monetary policy there was administered entirely through the Estado da India apparatus in Goa.
