Lot 668

Holland - AV ducat 1752, possibly over 1751, oblique milled (Delm 775 / CNM 2.28.54 / KM 12.3), with imitative countermark. This c/m is an imitation of the similar oval shaped c/m of Sumanep (v/d Wis B 15; N. v/d Ch. #177; ZENO 23979) and for the first time noticed in the collection Fonrobert, vol. 3, Australia, Asia and Africa, Berlin 1878 (lot #869, 870 & 871) and attributed to Bandjar(masin). Netscher & v/d Chijs (p. 159) read it “Belandjar”, but must be regarded as NOT authentic and were probably made in the middle of the 19th century to satisfy the collectors demand. Host coin good VF; c/m XF
