<p>[QUOTE=&quot;Robidoux Pass, post: 7452307, member: 96691&quot;]I found hundreds, maybe thousands, of these types in the town and village markets of Indonesia -- especially in that part of Borneo that is Indonesia.&nbsp; As I would often have many of the same dates to compare, I found that some dates were made with markedly differing dies.&nbsp; The crown and the shield, such as in this case, may have been relatively uniform, but the remainder of the pattern could vary and often be quite crude, and often parts of the coin weakly struck, as is your coin.</p><p><br /></p><p>I suspect there were counterfeits of these copper coins, but these should be contemporary counterfeits. At least I considered such on some of my coins.&nbsp; I make no such judgement on your coin.&nbsp; From the photographs, I&#039;d say it was likely authentic.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
