TENASSERIM-PEGU: Anonymous, 17th-18th century, cast large tin coin (57.55g), Robinson-Plate 10.2/10.4, 65mm, stylized image of the "dragon on sea" with flaming head, with the waves portrayed as dots (12 dots arranged randomly) // 3-line Burmese legend, unusually heavy weight, perhaps intended as double unit, bold VF, RR. 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.
