Hi everyone, Our house Casa da Moeda, was a Mint between 1834 to around 1841. (There was a Mint in Goa since 1510, but that building doesn't exist anymore). We're having a festival to celebrate 175 years since it began life as a Mint (1834-2009), from 8-10 Nov. There'll be talks on various aspects of the building, not all related to numismatics unfortunately. But renowned numismatist Fenelon Rebello will be speaking on 9 Nov. I made a trip to Casa da Moeda Lisbon, and got more information about the house and the coins from there. I'll be preparing some information material based on my research, for the festival. If there are some among you who would like to display pictures relating to coins from 1834-1841, or even Indo-Portuguese coins before and after, do let me know. For security reasons, I'm a little hesitant to allow display of your actual coins, unless you assume the responsibility for their safety. Do let me know. Best wishes, Dr Luis Dias
