Why is this coin listed as country of Perak while title on page identifies it as Malacca? Page also lists it as question mark for date while title uses 1247, which appears clearly on coin. https://en.numista.com/catalogue/pieces143317.html

KM# given is from SCWC Malay Peninsula-Malacca, not Perak. Rarity seems very high for this coin. Did multiple coin pages get confused here?

Definitely from Malacca.

The AH 1247 1 Keping is a very commonly seen coin.
