| Obverse lettering | B 2 1 V E 9 (P) C S Corrupted and retrograde (mirrored) script of B 1/2 V E I C St. |
| Reverse description | The reverse displays a flat, worn field bearing two lines of large, crudely incised retrograde Latin characters reading 'AVAJ' (the mirror image of 'JAVA') in the upper register and '3181' followed by '2' (the retrograde rendering of '1813 Z') in the lower register. The lettering is deeply but irregularly cut, consistent with unskilled local die production. The rim repeats the radiating denticle pattern seen on the obverse, and the overall surface shows the coarse texture typical of a hand-cast tin piece. |
