Reverse description The reverse displays the denomination expressed in two indigenous scripts arranged concentrically. The central area bears the value inscription in Malay written in Arabic (Jawi) script, while the surrounding legend repeats the equivalent value in Javanese script. A decorative floral or rosette motif appears at the top of the design, separating the two textual elements. The overall composition is spare, with the multilingual denomination serving as the sole design element against a plain field, reflecting the coin's intended circulation among diverse linguistic communities of the Dutch East Indies.
