149. Johor Penjuru Coin Sultan Abdul Jalil Shah

image 1: obverse and reverse of the coin

One step further into Malay Sultanate coinage. This is truly my first silver coin from group Malay Sultanates. As I still do not have proper instruments to measure its weight, its diameter is approximately 16mm. And it is currently unlisted in Saran Singh's book, nor I can find it elsewhere on the Net. Any comments would be very appreciated. Thanks.

I also don't remember this coin in any of my books. There is one johor silver in my photos collection but the wording is different too.; September 29, 2011 at 4:34 PM

I would recommend you posting the coin at

There are some moderators who are expert in Islamic South East Coins. I always receieve guidance from them. Ask them if this coin genuine or not.
Also buy the scale from Ebay, cheaper around Rm50. Last time I bought from kedai in KL, they charged me about Rm200 alasan its rare lah...susah nak dapat la...semua bs.
