| Obverse description | The Portuguese royal coat of arms displayed centrally in the field, featuring the traditional quartered shield with the five escutcheons of Portugal and the castles of the border, surmounted by a crown. The design is rendered in a crude, hammered style typical of colonial Goan copper coinage of the period. The shield occupies the majority of the flan, with the surrounding field left plain. |
