[QUOTE="Collect89, post: 3085204, member: 15445"]Back to Thailand we go. [ATTACH=full]777596[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]777595[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]777594[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]777593[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]777592[/ATTACH] This is a whopper of a coin at 61.03 grams of fine silver It is certainly one of the most oddly shaped. These large coins are called Chieng-city money. This one was minted in Chieng-sen between AD 1300-1545 for the Lannathai kingdom of Thailand. These coins are valued at 4 Baht. and 4 Baht equals a Tamelung. These coins are highly faked and often available as tourist trinkets but the real deal is rather hard to come by. I bought this one & it changed hands between another CT ancient coin forum dude & myself (once or twice). I keep it for now. :)[/QUOTE]
