What makes this a KM#3 coin and not a KM#2 is the weight, it has to weight 14.3 (original coin weight), 13.21 (average for the countermarked examples) or at least 12.61 grams to be considered this one. These coins went under a lot of clipping and scrapping for their gold, either during their original circulation at the Portuguese domain or after being countermarked to get some gold dust. Anything under that weight falls in the KM#2 one. The host coin could be any Brazilian 6400 Reis coin, so host coin design only matters as long as it fall under that denomination, but can have any ruler's face of that period or prior to that period. Multiple "G" countermarks around the coin, this was to prevent clipping, but since the whole perimeter wasn't countermarked the clipping occurred often, dropping most of this coins onto the KM#2 range.
