A tin coin of Java introduced about 1750, and copied in Su- matra for Atjeh, Palembang, and Djambi. See Millies and Netcher (passim), the lat- ter of whom (pp. 169 and 173) states that 4000 Pitjes were equal to a Spanish Real, thus indicating their insignificant value. To facilitate their use they were sewed in bags or on mats as follows :

250 Pitjes = 1 Kedjer = 1/16 Real = 20 Duits.

500 Pitjes =1 Tali = 1/8 Real = 40 Duits

1000 Pitjes = 1 Soekoe =1/4 Real = 80 Duits

2000 Pitjes = 1 Djampel = 1/2 Real = 160 Duits

In a paper contributed by R. C. Temple to The Indian Antiquary, 1913 (pp. 85 ct seq.), the relative values of the coins of the Malay Peninsula are given as follows:

A. Dutch popular method of reckoning: 4 Pitjes (Pitis, Pese, Cash) = 1 Duit. 21/2 Duit (Cent) = 1 Dubbeltje, Wang Baharu (copper). 21/2 Dubbpltje = 1 Kenderi perak (silver). 2 Kenderl (candareen) = 1 Suku (quarter). 4 Suku - 1 Ringglt (Real. Spanish Dollar).

B. Modern British popidar method of reckoning : 4 Pities. Keplng, Dult (Cash) = 1 Tengah Sen (half cent). 2 Tengah Sen = 1 Sen (cent). 21/2 Sen = 1 Wang Baharu (copper). 2 Wang Baharu = 1 Buaya. 2 Buaya = 1 Kupang. 21/2 Kupang = 1 Suku (quarter). 2 Suku = 1 Janipnl, or Djampel. 2 Jampal = 1 Ringgit (dollar).
