| Beschrijving keerzijde | The reverse displays a bold three-line inscription in the central field reading '1 / DOIT / JAVA' in large serif capital letters, with the numeral '1' positioned at the top flanked by two raised pellets on either side, and a single pellet below the word 'JAVA' at the base of the field. The legend is contained within a plain inner border, reflecting the straightforward typographic style characteristic of British colonial emergency coinage struck for circulation in Java during the brief British interregnum. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Java fell under British administration when Stamford Raffles was appointed Lieutenant-Governor in 1811, following a surprisingly swift military campaign against the Dutch-Napoleonic forces on the island. These tin duits were struck to maintain continuity with the existing Dutch colonial monetary system rather than impose a new currency — the duit denomination had circulated in the Dutch East Indies for over a century. Raffles returned Java to the Dutch in 1816 under the terms of the Anglo-Dutch Treaty, making the entire British coinage output for the island a window of fewer than five years.
