Beschrijving voorzijde A single Brahmi syllable 'Na' rendered in raised relief at the center of the field, enclosed within a circular border. The character is boldly struck and occupies the majority of the flan, executed in the characteristic South and Southeast Asian Brahmi script tradition of the early medieval period. The coin's dome-shaped planchet gives the design a pronounced convex profile typical of Srivijayan silver coinage of this type.

Aanvullende informatie

The Srivijayan coinage tradition is poorly documented by surviving records, which makes attribution contentious — the "paktong" designation here reflects a compositional ambiguity, as the term more commonly describes a copper-nickel alloy, yet analysis of these tiny pieces shows a debased silver content consistent with a trading polity managing metal supply across volatile maritime networks. Srivijaya's control of the Strait of Malacca meant its monetary instruments circulated far beyond Sumatra, turning up in hoards across the Malay Peninsula and coastal Java.

At 7 mm, these are among the smallest denominated issues attributed to the archipelago.
