| 背面描述 | The reverse depicts a standing or striding swan (or bird), rendered in low relief in a naive, folk-art style typical of Tranquebar lead cash coinage. The bird faces right with wings partially extended and tail feathers clearly delineated. The field is plain with no legend or inscription, and the flan edge remains irregular as struck. |

The Danish East India Company's Tranquebar settlement on the Coromandel Coast used lead cash as small change precisely because the denomination was too low to justify copper, let alone silver. These pieces circulated alongside local South Indian cash and Dutch VOC issues in a port economy where fractional transactions dominated daily trade. Lead was cheap, easy to cast, and expendable — which is partly why surviving examples in any condition are harder to find than their modest status might suggest.
