[QUOTE="drathbun, post: 1608088, member: 42789"]Sure enough, I was looking on the wiki page for Thai coins and they only showed current ones. A bit more research via an image search specifically for 1 baht coins found some examples of this... Believe it or not, via your help on this board and some diligent searching on our own, we have identified coins from Malaysia, Philippines, Austria, Turkey, Switzerland, Ecuador, El Salvador, Brazil, China, Nepal, Thailand, Taiwan, Japan, India, Belgium, Germany, Denmark, Norway, France, Italy, United Arab Emirates, Netherlands, Bermuda, Barbados, Australia, the no-longer-a-country Yugoslavia, and even some closer to home like Mexico and Canada. Quite a fun day! One of the cool things is that ultimately my son is working on his coin collecting merit badge, and one of the coins I brought back from a trip to Australia was the centennial recognition of scouting in that country, so it has the Scout logo on the back. I mean obverse. ;) We have only one more unidentified coin at this point, and I guess I need to look at the Thai coin list more thoroughly before I post it as a challenge for y'all, perhaps tomorrow. Thanks again so much for all of your help.[/QUOTE]
