Aanvullende informatie

The British administration of Dutch colonial territories during the Napoleonic Wars produced some of the most administratively improvised coinage in South Asian history. When France absorbed the Netherlands in 1810, Britain moved to occupy Dutch colonial possessions — Java fell in 1811 under Stamford Raffles. The resulting hybrid issues, struck under East India Company authority for territories that were never formally British, circulated only until the 1814 Convention of London obligated Britain to return the Dutch colonies.

This piece was struck at Calcutta. The return of Java to the Netherlands occurred in 1816, which directly brackets the production window.
