British Sumatra 1786 Proof Three PCGS PR63BN






BRITISH SUMATRA. 1786. Copper. PROOF THREE KEPINGS. Balemark, date below. Denomination, date & legend. KM# 259.1. PCGS PR63BN.
Lovely chocolate tone, tidy surfaces.
To the degree that the copper coins of Bencoolen pre-date the coinage struck by the British for use at Penang, they are an excellent record of the early efforts of the British to gain a toe-hold in the lucrative spice and opium trade of South East Asia.
As the very first coins struck by Matthew Boulton – indisputably the father of industrialized coinage, the copper coins of Bencoolen are of further importance to collectors of British and British colonial coinage.
For more information on the history of these fascinating coins, read the article in our research section -
British Coinage in South East Asia in the Late 18th Century.
