Beschrijving voorzijde The field is occupied entirely by three lines of Jawi script in the Arabic-derived Malay writing system, arranged horizontally across the flan. The legend reads 'Sri Sultan Ibrahim Shah', identifying the ruling sultan of Selangor. The inscription is rendered in a bold, somewhat crude cast style typical of Malay tin pitis coinage of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The flat, unadorned field surrounds the text without a formal border, consistent with the artisanal casting methods employed at the Selangor mint.

Aanvullende informatie

The Sultanate of Selangor was established as a distinct political entity only in the 1740s, when Bugis warriors from Sulawesi consolidated control over the tin-rich Klang Valley after decades of conflict with the Minangkabau and Dutch-aligned forces. Ibrahim Shah ruled during a period when Selangor's tin trade drew increasing European attention, and these pitis circulated in a regional economy where Chinese and Malay merchant networks often operated simultaneously with different monetary conventions. Tin coinage of this type was cast rather than struck, making each piece dimensionally inconsistent despite the catalogued specifications.
