Zusätzliche Informationen

Burma's lead coinage of this period occupies a peculiar position in numismatic history — lead was not a prestige metal chosen for permanence, but a practical concession to the chronic shortage of copper in the Konbaung court's treasury. The 1868 issue came just years before the British annexation of Upper Burma in 1885 extinguished the royal mint entirely, making these pieces among the last indigenous Burmese coinage struck under genuine royal authority rather than colonial administration.
