Riau-Lingga Sultanate Tin Ship Token and Fish (Ikan) Katun Token (1824-1911) (Provenance: Tanjung Pinang, Bintan Indonesia). These token types are unlisted in all catalogues including Saran Singh’s “The Encyclopedia of The Coins of Malaysia, Singapore and Brunei 1400-1967″. It was mentioned in John N. Miksic’s “Singapore the Silk Road of the Sea 1300-1800″ as one of the archaeological artefacts excavated in Bintan. The artefact excavated is similar to the ship in this collection. -- source link
