GRADED NGC VF30
British East India Company issue struck at the Calcutta mintfor circulation in and around Fort Marlborough,
Rarer of the two dates.
The denomination of 2 sukus equaled 4 reales or a half Spanish
milled dollar. They were the last silver coins struck for this area. From then
on they would rely on Spanish silver and the copper coins struck locally and at
the Soho Mint in England. Fort Marlborough was the main fort in the Bencoolen
Presidency and was a British possession in Sumatra based in the area of what is
now Bengkulu City. In 1785 it was downgraded to Bencoolen Residency and placed
under the Bengal Presidency. The British ceded Fort Marlborough and the City of
Benculen (Bengkulu) to the Dutch as part of the Anglo-Dutch Treaty of 1824.
