| Additional information |
Pattern coinage from Casa da Moeda — Portugal's state mint — was produced as trial strikes for ministerial and parliamentary approval before any design entered circulation. The Gomes reference places this piece within a documented series of rejected or unadopted proposals, meaning this design never progressed to a circulation issue. Whether killed by political objection, a change in monetary policy, or simply outcompeted by another submitted design is rarely recorded in the surviving mint documentation.
