| Beschrijving voorzijde | Central circular hole surrounded by a raised annular ring, around which is arranged a stylized four-petalled lotus ornament rendered in low relief. Each petal is flanked by raised pellets or bosses distributed evenly around the field, creating a radiating decorative composition characteristic of Khmer coinage. The design fills the flan to the plain rim, with no inscriptions or legends present. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The holed tin-lead coinages of the Khmer Empire remain poorly documented compared to the dynasty's architectural record, and scholarly attribution has long depended on hoard context rather than inscriptional evidence. Mitchiner's cataloguing of this type drew heavily on excavation finds from the Angkor region, where these pieces circulated alongside Chinese cast cash that entered the kingdom through sustained trade networks along the Mekong.
The hole was functional, not decorative — stringing coins for transport and transaction counting was standard practice across mainland Southeast Asia.
