| Beschrijving voorzijde | Royal crown displayed above the royal cypher 'F 3', denoting King Frederik III of Denmark. The monogram is rendered in a simple, cursory style consistent with cast lead coinage of the mid-17th century. The devices occupy the central field, with no surrounding legend. The flan is irregular and the surfaces are characteristically rough due to the casting technique. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Tranquebar's lead cash issues under Frederik III occupied a peculiar corner of Danish colonial finance — the denomination was so small in value that the coins functioned almost exclusively in local bazaar trade, largely ignored by European merchants conducting business in larger silver. Lead was not chosen for prestige but for availability and the simple economics of paying Indian laborers and purchasing provisions at the fort.
KM#73 spans more than two decades of issue without meaningful design revision, making precise date attribution within the reign essentially impossible from the coin alone.
