| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central crowned shield of Portugal flanked by the initials A and D, denoting the mint transfer from Goa (A) to Diu (D). The royal arms are rendered in a simplified hammered style characteristic of Portuguese colonial coinage. The crown surmounting the shield is of the traditional Portuguese royal form. The field surrounding the shield is plain, with no additional legend. The overall design is crudely struck, as typical of hammered issues from the Estado da India mints. |

João IV's reign saw Portuguese India under sustained pressure — the Estado da India had been hemorrhaging territory to the Dutch for decades, and Goa's mint was producing silver fractionals partly to maintain fiscal credibility in ports the Crown could still hold. The transfer authorization implied in this piece's designation, minted at Goa for circulation at Diu, reflects the administrative reality of a colonial system increasingly dependent on inter-factory coin movement to keep garrisons and merchants liquid.
Diu's own minting capacity was intermittent at best during this period.
