Conclusion
1. The act of keeping these coins for the purpose of being worshiped to gain wealth, kept for the purpose of protecting oneself from magic and evil is an act of shirk and superstition.
2. This coin is not a coin, it is just a medallion used by medical practitioners and mystical enthusiasts for a purpose that only they know.
3. It was never used in the time of the Prophets and Messengers. The year written on the money may be up to 400 years old. however, it is only a fantasy created by the designer. As far as I know, there is no history of this coin anywhere in any other country’s numismatic books other than the book “Magic coins of Java, Bali, and the Malay Peninsula” by Joe Cribb.
4. This money became popular because many of the Malays dreamed of mat jenin to make an easy profit by selling it at a price of thousands of ringgit, while only buying it at a price of tens of ringgit. You can actually get it with a sidewalk vendor for less than RM30 a piece.
