| Obverse description | The crowned Portuguese royal coat of arms is displayed centrally within the coin's field, featuring the characteristic quinas (five escutcheons) arranged in a cross pattern. The mint letters G and A (for Goa) flank the shield at lower left and lower right respectively. A decorative arc or crown surmounts the shield, with the overall design struck in low relief consistent with cast colonial coinage of the period. |
