Reverse description The Cross of the Military Order of Christ, a pattée cross with the characteristic Portuguese heraldic form, is prominently displayed at the center of the reverse field. The date numerals are distributed at the four corners of the cross. On the 1750 issue, the numeral '4' appears below the cross, denoting 4 Duganis, a local Diu denomination distinct from the official Portuguese monetary system. The overall composition is characteristic of hammered colonial copper coinage, with the date elements occasionally inverted or stylistically varied across die varieties.
