This is another area I am a bit in the dark on. Can any one enlighten me on this Coteng? Its age or any other information?
When I got it, it was not on the correct Keris. |

By the way... if anyone knows... where you insert the peksi, appears to made from horn (inside the silver).
![]() Is this a normal material for a Coteng? |

Personally I like the silver work on the hilt. This is an earlier form of hilt and so maybe 18c?

nechesh,
No, I know less about this than you do. The horn could go through the whole Coteng, but I cannot tell. It has a grayish appearance where you can see it at the entrance area for the peksi. I was hoping you good folks could tell me. Battara, 18c, wow! ![]() Thank you for both your knowledge and input! |
