INDONESIAN PITIS COIN, PALEMBANG PIRATE MONEY, NGC SLAB
This remarkable ancient coin originates from the Palembang Sultanate, a significant maritime kingdom in present-day Indonesia, active between 1658 and 1805. Known colloquially as "Pirate Money, " these Pitis coins played an essential role in the trade and commerce of Southeast Asia during a time marked by both legitimate trade and widespread piracy. This particular Pitis coin has been graded and encapsulated by the Numismatic Guaranty Corporation (NGC), ensuring its preservation and display-ready condition.
