It's also Thai - maybe a baht?

 

I don't collect world coins, any reason here that I should start??
I'm sure it's not going anywhere anyway.LOL

 

Nope, no reason that I see if you're not into 'em. It's not a valuable coin, anyway.

 

Thanks that is what I wanted to know

 

Thai Baht - 1 baht denomination. It's worth about 3 cents in US currency without any conversion fees. I'm pretty sure that's a modern coin - minted after 1986. If it's older, it could have numismatic value, but I'm pretty sure that's a modern strike.

 

But what is it, Denomination, ETC..

 

we must have been typing at the same time...LOL

 

Thailand 1 Baht, Y# 443 BE2553 (2010) V, Mintage 551,853,000, nickel plated steel. Worth: face value

 

The guy on the coin is King Bhumibol, longest reigning monarch in the world, currently. Beats Queen Elizabeth II by 7 years.

Bhumibol Adulyadej born 5 December 1927) is the King of Thailand. He is also known as Rama IX, as he is the ninth monarch of the Chakri Dynasty. Having reigned since 9 June 1946, he is the world's longest-serving current head of state (more)

Note he was only 18 years old when he got in the driver's seat. He was a strong and reliable ally during the Vietnam war, and his actions indirectly saved MANY American lives.

 

This one baht coin was first struck in 1986 and is still in production.

 

I used to find coins like this in coin machine reject bins all the time.
