| Aversbeschreibung | The denomination '2 S' is struck in large, bold characters at the centre of the roughly rectangular copper flan, enclosed within a pearled rectangular border. The numerals and letter are rendered in a crude but legible hammered style characteristic of VOC emergency coinage produced for circulation in Java. The field surrounding the inscription is flat and unadorned, and the overall surfaces show the irregular striking typical of hand-hammered production. The pearled border is partially visible along all four sides, though its completeness varies due to the irregular shape of the planchet. |

By the mid-1790s, the VOC was functionally bankrupt — its charter was allowed to lapse on 31 December 1799, after which the Dutch state absorbed its debts and remaining territories. These copper pieces were struck during that terminal phase, issued for circulation in VOC-controlled ports at a moment when the Company's administrative apparatus was collapsing under the weight of corruption, mismanagement, and the disruptions of the French Revolutionary Wars in Europe.
At 48 grams, this is a heavy struck piece for a 2-stuiver denomination — a deliberate overcalibration in copper weight intended to maintain transactional credibility in colonial markets that had grown deeply skeptical of VOC-issued money.
