| Beschrijving keerzijde | A curvilinear motif in low relief occupying the central field, commonly interpreted in numismatic literature as a highly stylized animal, worm-like form, or abstract symbol. The design is rendered in a rudimentary hammered style, forming a loosely coiled or sinuous shape within the plain field. The exact iconographic identity of the device remains uncertain, consistent with the ambiguous symbolism found on primitive Malay peninsula tin coinage of the 7th to 14th century period. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tin coinage on the Malay peninsula occupies an unusual place in monetary history — the region supplied the world's tin markets yet struggled for centuries to standardize its own fractional coinage. These small pieces circulated alongside Chinese cash coins and eventually European colonial issues, filling gaps in local trade that neither imported currency adequately served.
Attribution of individual pieces remains contested among specialists; many were struck by private merchants or individual state authorities without central oversight.
