| 表面の説明 | Central field displays the crowned Portuguese royal arms, comprising the characteristic quinas (five escutcheons) shield surmounted by a royal crown, all rendered in hammered relief typical of colonial Portuguese coinage. The shield is flanked by the counterstamp letters 'C' to the left and 'Lo' to the right within the field, referencing the issuing viceroy or authority. The design is contained within a plain circular border, with the overall strike showing the irregular flan characteristic of hand-hammered silver coinage of the period. |

Portuguese Ceylon's counterstamped tanga issues of the mid-seventeenth century were a direct administrative response to chronic shortages of acceptable coinage in Goa and the Estado da India's eastern territories. Rather than striking entirely new coin, Portuguese authorities counterstamped existing silver — often locally circulating pieces — to authorize their use at a fixed tariffed value. KM#54 represents this practice applied to the tanga denomination, a unit deeply embedded in the Goan monetary system inherited from pre-Portuguese Konkan trade.
The 1640 date places this issue squarely within the period of the Portuguese Restoration, when the newly crowned João IV was reasserting Braganza authority after sixty years of Iberian Union under the Spanish crown.
