Reverse description The reverse bears the date of issue arranged within the plain field, rendered in a crude, locally influenced hand. The inscription 'D.B 1652' appears prominently, with the date numerals occupying the lower portion of the flan. The execution is characteristic of the roughly cast lead cash coinage produced for trade circulation in the Danish enclave of Tranquebar (Tharangambadi), with irregular surface texture throughout.
