<p>[QUOTE="keemao, post: 1942799, member: 43972"]Thanks. I picked them up from an old well known coin dealer in Bangkok. I was told to deal with nobody else but him from the guy who does money auctions in Bangkok 2-3 times a year. I already had the guy's shop on my list to start with. He had some other proof coins that I didn't buy because in my eyes they were not "pristine" and would not have even had a chance at PF70. This was my first PF70 Thai coin so far. You just don't find them at coin shows, unfortunately, and have to find them in Bangkok. I plan on going back over late November for the auction at that time and will be buying whatever proof silver coins they have at the government savings bank building next to the mint in Pathumthani. They have an awesome museum at the mint that has lots of old Thai coins on the second floor of the mint. Only problem is the govt. savings bank next to the mint, you have to order the proof coins in advance and pick them up about 3 days later. It's a good taxi ride from Bangkok and I have no clue what proof coins they have until I see them.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
