It was in a jar with other coins from the 1910's all the way through the 1960's. It looks like its Filipino or Thailand but I am not sure. Report this Post to the Staff

thai-vic Pillar of the Community Thailand 1509 Posts	Posted 06/12/2012 04:17 am I see them (elephants that is) on the ring road (on Koh Samui) during the morning and evening rush hour. On their way to and from 'work' to carry tourists on jungle treks. The sight of them always makes me smile. Report this Post to the Staff

I have an obvious cast silver copy of a similar coin, and unfortunately this one looks very similar. Good quality slver, but a poor fake. I am not sure why such a coin in good quality silver would be faked. For me, the mystery deepens somewhat. Report this Post to the Staff
bobreilly3 New Member United States 2 Posts	Posted 06/12/2012 5:38 pm sel_69l, is there any other reason you believe this may be a fake? Could you send me a picture of the fake you have? Report this Post to the Staff
