MALAYA. British East India Company. Singapore Merchants issues. Fighting Cock series: C. R. Read. Copper Keping Token, AH 1250 (1835). Soho (Birmingham) Mint. NGC AU-55.
KM-Tn2; Prid-33. A better example of the popular C.R. Read type. Christopher Read was leading Singapore merchant, and these tokens would have been used to facilitate commerce for small transactions. A good amount of ruddiness remains on this example, and evidence of handling only exists on the high elements of the rooster.
Estimate: $100 - $150
