TENASSERIM-PEGU: Anonymous, 17th-18th century, cast large tin coin (21.95g), Robinson-26 ff (Plate 10.2, 10.3, and 10.4), 63mm, stylized image of the "dragon on sea", with the waves portrayed as dots (29 dots in 4 rows) // 3-line Burmese legend, light example (known pieces vary from about 21g to 44g, with an average of about 32g), nice example with smooth surfaces and no damage or corrosion, choice VF-EF, R. Although this is a relatively available Tenasserim large coin, it comes in a bewildering variation of the quantity and arrangement of the dots representing the ocean waves.
