Comment
Batavia mintInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was minted during a brief period of Dutch colonial rule in Indonesia, specifically in the early 19th century. The coin features the Dutch East India Company's logo on one side and the image of a Hindu deity on the other, reflecting the cultural influences of the region at the time.
