Additional information

Aceh maintained one of the longest-running tin coinage traditions in Southeast Asia, sourcing the metal largely from Perak and the Malay peninsula through networks the Sultanate actively controlled or contested. The keueh denominations were struck in the mid-19th century as Dutch commercial pressure on the Sumatran coast intensified — Aceh would resist formal Dutch military intervention until 1873, when the colonial war began, and again for decades after.

The Mitchiner references cover minor die variants across this type, and examples attributable to specific varieties remain difficult to pin without careful comparison against the published plates.
