Chazza Öffentlichkeit Deposited
A tin coin of Malacca and probably a later name for the Bastardo (q.v.). William Barret in his Travels (circa 1550), says : " For the mony of Malacca the least mony current is of thine stamped with the Armes of Portugall and 12 of these make a Chazza. The Chazza is also of tinne tie with the said Amies and two of these make a Challaine. The Challaine is of tinne with the said Armes and forty of these make a Tanga of Goa good mony but not made in Malacca."
