Dez Reis [10] - José I - Goa mint

正面描述	The Portuguese royal arms displayed on a crowned shield, surmounted by a royal crown with five visible points. The escutcheon bears the traditional quinas (five blue shields in cross formation) of the Portuguese coat of arms, rendered in a crude hammered style characteristic of the Goa colonial mint. The shield is set against a plain field with no surrounding legend.

附加信息	José I came to the Portuguese throne in 1750, and this Goa issue belongs to the very first years of his reign — a period when the Estado da India was already a diminished operation, its trade dominance long surrendered to the Dutch and English. The Goa mint by this point functioned less as an engine of imperial commerce and more as a local administrative necessity, supplying small copper for the colony's internal economy. The Gomes reference Jo 28.01 suggests this is the primary variety of the type, though Goa copper from this period is frequently encountered with irregular flans and off-center strikes — a product of the mint's chronic understaffing and deteriorating equipment in the mid-eighteenth century.
