| Obverse description | The obverse presents the royal arms of Portugal at center, consisting of the royal shield surmounted by a crown. The mint letters D and O, denoting the Diu mint, flank the shield to the left and right respectively, while the numeral '4' appears below the arms, referencing the local denomination of 4 Duganis. The design is executed in the hammered tradition on a broad, irregular flan with a plain inner field. The composition reflects the characteristic adaptation of Portuguese royal iconography to locally understood denominations for circulation among the indigenous population of Diu. |
