| Obverse description | Denomination '2 S' (two stuivers) struck in large, bold characters within a pearled rectangular border, the legends produced by hammer striking on an irregularly shaped copper flan. The numerals and letter are rendered in a somewhat crude, utilitarian style characteristic of colonial hammered coinage. Pellet or pellet-like ornaments appear in the field alongside the denomination. The overall strike is typical of emergency or provisional coinage produced for circulation in Java during the early nineteenth century. |
