| Aanvullende informatie |
The Porto mint operated under royal license as a secondary facility to Lisbon, activated during periods when colonial gold from Brazil arrived faster than a single mint could process it. João V's reign coincided with the peak of Minas Gerais production — by 1712, Brazilian gold was flooding Lisbon in quantities that genuinely overwhelmed the Casa da Moeda's capacity. The Porto facility struck this type across a narrow window before consolidation rendered it redundant.
Gomes distinguishes two varieties within this type, J5 100 and J5 101, differentiated by subtle die characteristics that reward careful examination under magnification. Porto mint gold consistently shows slightly rougher edge treatment than contemporary Lisbon issues.
