AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

We have never encountered this before, a remarkable year change—not to a later year, but to an earlier one! 1838 was changed from 1842, with a clear 4 under the 3.
Another peculiarity is that it is a flat 3 with an Arabic 1 combination; this is also not documented.
The coin is simply considered a genuine coin in our eyes, with no indication that it is a replica. It may, however, be an overstrike on another coin (in which case the host year might be 1742).

Front side: ★ / NEDERL / INDIE / 1838 / J

Material: Copper - Cu
Weight: 2.98 grams
