Baçaim — modern Vasai, north of Mumbai — was one of the oldest Portuguese strongholds on the Indian coast, held continuously from 1534 until the Marathas seized it in 1739. That siege effectively ended the mint's productive life, meaning most output from this type falls in the earlier decades of João V's reign rather than running to 1750 as the type date range implies. Survivors attributable to post-1739 striking are essentially theoretical.
The "wheel" coinage of Portuguese India was a response to local trade demand for small-denomination copper-alloy pieces that could compete with indigenous currencies in the bazaar economy of the northern Konkan.
