Aanvullende informatie

Maria II's Indian rupias were struck at Goa under persistent logistical strain — the mint there operated with aging equipment and irregular silver supplies throughout the 1840s, which accounts for the notoriously inconsistent striking quality seen across the series. The "small bust" variety distinction from Gomes reflects a documented die revision within the emission, not merely a collector's convenience.

Portugal's hold on Goa by this period was more symbolic than commercial, and these coins circulated in direct competition with British Indian issues that were already dominant in regional trade.
