| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central field displays the quartered royal arms of Portugal surmounted by an ornate crown, the shield incorporating the traditional Portuguese castles and escutcheons. The arms are framed by a wreath of laurel and olive branches tied at the base, with the date 1834 inscribed in the lower exergue beneath the wreath. The entire design is bordered by a fine milled or granulated rim. No monarch's effigy or legend appears; the composition relies entirely on the heraldic device as the primary design element. |

| Beschrijving keerzijde | The denomination '30' is boldly rendered in large numerals at the centre of the field, with the abbreviation 'R' (for Réis) positioned immediately below. The entire numeral group is encircled by a symmetrical wreath of laurel and berry-bearing branches, tied at the base with a decorative bow or rosette. The field is plain and unlettered beyond the denomination mark. A milled edge border frames the design, consistent with the obverse treatment. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The Damão mint operated under persistent logistical strain — copper supply, skilled labor, and royal authorization rarely aligned cleanly in Portuguese India's northern enclaves. This 1834 pattern was struck during the transitional chaos following the Liberal Wars, when Maria II's claim to the Portuguese throne had only just been secured after years of civil conflict with her uncle Miguel. Issuing new coinage for the Estado da India was both a practical necessity and a political statement of restored Marian authority in the territories.
Its status as a pattern — catalogued by Gomes as E5 — confirms it never entered circulation.
