| Zusätzliche Informationen |
João IV's accession in 1640 ended sixty years of Iberian Union, during which Goa's mint had struck coins in the name of Spanish kings. The restoration of Portuguese authority required immediate recoinage — both as practical currency and as a declaration that the Crown had returned. These 2 Tanga pieces were among the first issues to carry João's name at Goa, a mint that had operated continuously since 1510 and remained the economic engine of the Estado da India's trade networks stretching from Mozambique to Macau.
The fourteen-year emission window reflects chronic silver shortages and interrupted shipments from Lisbon during the prolonged Portuguese Restoration War against Spain.
