| Reversbeschreibung | A highly schematic design composed of vertical and horizontal bars occupying the central field, representing a severely degraded form of the purna ghata, or vase of plenty, a motif drawn from Hindu-Buddhist iconography. On early and better-preserved specimens the vase form may be discernible, but on the majority of extant examples the design has degenerated into a simple geometric arrangement of bars. The surrounding field is plain, with no inscription or border ornament. The irregular flan and crude strike are consistent with the hammered production technique of medieval Javanese gold coinage. |

| Zusätzliche Informationen |
The masa was the dominant unit of account across the Javanese river kingdoms for nearly three centuries, minted in the courts of Kadiri, Singhasari, and the early Majapahit transition period. These coinages circulated alongside imported Chinese cash and indigenous ring-money in the dense trade networks feeding Java's pepper and rice economy. Attribution to specific reigns remains genuinely difficult — the Wicks sequence groups them typologically rather than dynastically, and no surviving court record reliably ties a specific die to a specific ruler.
At 2.41 g, this falls precisely within the classical masa standard, which itself derived from a weight system shared across maritime Southeast Asia and traceable to Indian mercantile influence no later than the 9th century.
