windweaver77 Valued Member United States 174 Posts	Posted 01/02/2022 11:14 am Thai boat money or something like that. Anyway the guy who's wife I bought this from collected a bunch of odds and ends throughout Asia, as he worked there. So they are legit, whatever they are, odds are. Report this Post to the Staff

Seeker55 Pillar of the Community United States 634 Posts	Posted 01/02/2022 11:42 am Yes, both are from the Thailand/Laos area. The first item is called "Tiger Tongue money," for example see here: https://coins.ha.com/itm/thailand/t.../378-14540.s The second is indeed "boat money" also called Lat money - example here: https://argocoins.com/product/thail...e-lat-money/ In general, for all ID requests it's good practice to include dimensions and weights to help determine authenticity and denomination.

Collects82 Pillar of the Community United States 1316 Posts	Posted 01/02/2022 11:45 am Super cool! Thailand is also famous for its "bullet money" pot duang minted before they started using a modern press and producing common flat circle coins we still enjoy today. I appreciate their unique take on a coin! I am working on a type set and hope to eventually come across some of these tiger tongue and boat monies myself! Report this Post to the Staff
