John Paul Valued Member United States 232 Posts	Posted 07/14/2012 10:11 pm These are 1 Baht coins. I think the years are BE 2544 = 2001 BE 2547= 2004 The BE refers to the "Buddhist Era" which is 543 years ahead of the western calendar The years are the 4 symbols above the large circular symbol on the reverse. I don't know where they are minted. Report this Post to the Staff

Sap Moderator Australia 16808 Posts	Posted 07/15/2012 02:44 am I actually translate the date-numerals as 2554 (AD 2011) and 2547. Quote: Mint? I don't know where they are minted. Thailand has its own mint, just one, the Royal Thai Mint, currently situated on the northern outskirts of Bangkok. Both of these coins were struck at this new Mint building, which opened in 2003. You'll also notice the portrait is slightly different on the two coins: the portrait on the top coin was introduced partway through 2008. And, if the catalogue information is correct, the top coin should stick to a magnet (nickel-plated steel), while the lower coin should not (cupronickel). Don't say "infinitely" when you mean "very"; otherwise, you'll have no word left when you want to talk about something really infinite. - C. S. Lewis Report this Post to the Staff
