| Reversbeschreibung | A stylized ornamental tree, likely a palm tree, depicted in bold low relief at the center of the field, with sweeping frond-like branches radiating symmetrically from a central trunk and curling volutes at the base suggesting roots or ground. A small shield or cartouche device appears at the crown of the tree. The design fills most of the flan and is executed in the crude, vigorous style characteristic of hammered colonial copper issues. The irregular edge shows the typical planchet roughness of this series. No legend or inscription is present on this side. |

Suriname had been English until 1667, when the Dutch traded it away in the Treaty of Breda — surrendering the colony in exchange for New Amsterdam, which would become New York. This duit was struck just over a decade into Dutch administration of the colony, making it among the earliest coinage issued specifically for Surinamese circulation. The "Papegaaitje" nickname — Little Parrot — derives from the tree type on the reverse, a local colloquial designation that stuck among collectors long after the official nomenclature faded.
Scholt II#1436a distinguishes this variety from later tree duits by specific die characteristics. Survivors are scarce; colonial copper in tropical climates rarely made it back to Europe in collectible condition.
