| Reverse description | The reverse displays the large numeral '15' in bold relief at the centre of the field, indicating the denomination of 15 Réis. The numerals are the sole design element, with no surrounding legend, devices, or additional inscription. The field is otherwise plain, consistent with the utilitarian character of hammered copper coinage struck for Portuguese India at the Goa mint. The striking is typical of early eighteenth-century colonial copper issues, showing slight irregularity in the flan. |
