| Obverse description | The Portuguese Royal Arms displayed on a crowned shield occupies the central field, with the crowned escutcheon bearing the traditional quinas arrangement. The mint letters D and O, identifying the Dio (Diu) mint, are placed to either side of the shield in the field. The design is struck in the hammered tradition, with characteristic irregular flan and moderate relief typical of Portuguese Indian colonial copper coinage of the early eighteenth century. |
