| Beschrijving keerzijde | A bundle of three arrows, points downward, bound together at the center with a cord or lace, depicted within a border of large pellets. The arrows are rendered in a primitive, strongly struck style characteristic of the Cochim mint's copper bazaruco coinage. The device is centered in the field, with the binding clearly delineated despite the worn and irregular flan. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Sebastião's Indian copper issues were struck under the Estado da India at a moment when Portuguese commercial dominance along the Malabar Coast was already being tested by Ottoman naval pressure in the Arabian Sea. The Cochim mint — one of the oldest European-operated mints in Asia — produced bazarucos as the lowest-denomination workhorse of local trade, circulating alongside indigenous coinage in markets where Portuguese monetary authority was often more aspirational than actual.
Gomes Se 19 is among the more frequently encountered of Sebastião's Indian types, though surface porosity from the regional copper alloys used at Cochim is nearly universal on surviving examples.
