| Beschrijving keerzijde | An armillary sphere rendered in the central field, depicted with horizontal bands crossed by diagonal arcs, representing the celestial globe — a dynastic emblem of King Manuel I of Portugal. The sphere is enclosed within a beaded inner border and an outer beaded circle, the whole design exhibiting the irregular, roughly struck character typical of hammered copper coinage produced at the Goa mint in the early sixteenth century. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The bazaruco was the lowest denomination in Portuguese India's copper coinage, introduced almost immediately after Albuquerque's seizure of Goa in 1510 — the Portuguese effectively inheriting and reforming a denomination already familiar to local traders from earlier Bijapur Sultanate issues. Manuel I never set foot in India; his name on this coin reflects the administrative reality of a king governing a maritime empire through governors and viceroys across tens of thousands of miles.
Gomes E1 01.01 places this at the earliest documented phase of Portuguese Indian coinage, before the mint infrastructure at Goa had fully stabilized.
