| Aversbeschreibung | Hairpin-shaped tin ingot formed into a larin, with both parallel shanks stamped with the civic symbols of Batavia: a sword and a wreath device impressed into the surface of each leg. The hammered impressions appear on the flat upper face of each shank, characteristic of VOC-issued tin larins struck at the Batavia mint for circulation in the Dutch East Indies. |

The VOC's tin larins were struck for circulation in Ceylon, where the larin — originally a bent wire coin used across the Persian Gulf and Indian Ocean trade zones — had been adapted into a flat, locally mintable format. The Dutch inherited this currency system from the Portuguese, who themselves had adopted it from pre-colonial Ceylonese practice. Tin was the practical choice: the island's own monetary tradition had long favored the metal, and the VOC controlled enough regional tin supply from Malaya to make production cost-effective.
Schöngut 20 is among the earlier VOC tin larin types, predating the company's tighter administrative grip on Ceylonese minting that came after the 1670s.
