Maybe I am missing something, but is this a duplicate listing?

I see a difference in the currency, a different weight, a different composition, and a different diameter with just a glance.

Some states on the Malay peninsula copied coinage from other countries mostly Chinese cash, that is most probably what’s happened here and they were almost exclusively minted on tin planchets

I think they are the same and both are Tin-Lead composition.

 

these coins have quite huge variations in weight so a difference here is not unusual.

I've seen with a range of weight and diameter of other coins, I do not believe just one milimeter would change the issuer of such a crude old coin.

 

I do not have the catalogs, but it is interesting it says is listed under

So if it is a duplicate listing, wich one should be deleted?

Its in the territory of Malaysia but as we list things here the issuer is Portuguese India

Same coin, belongs under Portuguese Malacca.  There are varieties based on the number of concentric lines in the globe and the direction of the angled line at center.

Shouldn't one entry be deleted?
