<p>[QUOTE="Ancientnoob, post: 2284446, member: 44140"][USER=75132]@Daniel Jones[/USER] If we told you that we would have to kill you. You can find them online but best to get from a trusted dealer. All you have to do is know the key words. For coinage like this it is best you acquire a text. These are probably some of the rarest coins ever struck and the rarest to find a collector for. Rare yes! Expensive not really when compared to other more common coinages. People in the West don't generally collect these and people in the East focus on China and India and the Thai early modern coinages. This is truly the undiscovered country. </p><p><br /></p><p>[USER=75799]@Loong Siew[/USER] I am thrilled you acquired these coins, but as discussed earlier I have reservations on the authenticity of the 19 gram coin. Never seen it, can't find a reference for it, and the style looks generally off. Coin # 2 looks good in my eyes. </p><p><br /></p><p>I will share my coins of Mon, Funan, Pyu and Sailendra when I return home.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
