| Obverse description | Central design depicts a stylized architectural structure, likely a gateway or temple facade, rendered in low relief with a horizontally lined or grated lower section and an arched upper portion surmounted by radiating elements suggestive of a crown or sunburst. The design is enclosed within a raised circular border. The legend I V G A appears around the upper arc of the field, representing the royal cypher of João V (Joannes V) and the Goa mint attribution. The overall style is characteristic of the crude hammered coinage produced at the Goa mint in the early eighteenth century. |
