NETHERLANDS EAST INDIES. Dutch East India Company. Java. 1/2 Stuiver, 1644. Batavia Mint. NGC EF Details--Environmental Damage.KM-31; Sch-18. From a crudely cast emergency issue, this piece still exhibits significant detail across all devices and satisfactory surfaces for the grade. A <strong>SCARCE </strong>and very historical piece that will see aggressive bidding.<em>The East India Company itself did not produce this coinage, instead contracting a Chinese immigrant named Conjok to cast both 1/2 and 1/4 Stuivers. These coins were later demonetized before the end of 1644.</em><br />
