Netherlands East Indies Java Bonk Emergency Coin 2 Stuiver 1810 Weight 13,22 Gr

Description: Java Bonk Stuiver Emergency Money 1810 13,22grams L39 Bonken coinage was born out of necessity: the Dutch provincial Duiten were often melted down by the local population. At the beginning of January 1796, the stock of Duiten in the Batavia had shrunk to such an extent that a solution had to be found to prevent the money circulation from stagnating. The Commissioner General Johannes Siberg suggested making Bonken from the available Japanese bar copper. The rods were cut into pieces so that rapid, efficient production could take place. In the spring of 1799, minting temporarily ceased due to a shortage of copper bars, at the end of that year production of this emergency coin was resumed. Due to a scarcity of silver and gold (pass) coins, 'copper money' became the norm in the Dutch East Indies. During the occupation of Java and its dependencies, the British government put the Bonken out of circulation in 1815. After the Indies were brought back under Dutch rule, the Bonken coinage experienced a brief revival: in 1818 and early 1819 the Minthuis in Soerabaia coined Bonken van Stuivers.
