马来西亚。吉打州。大约18世纪中期锡制动物钱。直径101.06 mm，重29.47 g。保存如此完整者极难见到。小公鸡下方缀六个环。小公鸡本身价值为一西班牙银圆的五分钱，下方每多一个圆环则价值增加一分钱。圆环可拆解作一分钱使用，用于小型交易。这种动物钱直到1850年代还在流通。深色包浆，表面少许氧化。引人入胜的一枚。101.06 mm; 29.47 gms. SS-20c. VERY RARE to find fully intact. Cockerel perched on six rings. The cock was worth five cents of the Spanish Dollar while each attached ring was worth an additional cent of value. The rings were broken off for small transactions and used as one cent pieces. These circulated as late as the 1850s when the rings were worth ten pieces of the Singapore Merchants one Keping tokens. Deeply toned with minor surface oxidation. Quite attractive and very interesting.VERY FINE.
