GLOSSARY ENTRY (DERIVED FROM QUESTION BELOW)

Art/Literary - Tourism & Travel / tourist transportation systems
Portuguese term or phrase: Coroas
'Passe definido por coroas, válido na rede Scotturb, Carris, Metropolitano de Lisboa, Transtejo, CP Lisboa, Rodoviária de Lisboa, Transportes Sul do Tejo, Soflusa, Transportes Colectivos do Barreiro e Lisboa Transportes.'

From what I gather, this is a Portuguese system. Would it be too weird to translate as crowns?

I'm not sure what to do here.

Thanks in advance for your help!
