You'll find a numeral translator at the front of Krause, but the pics for a couple of the numerals look different to how they actually appear on the coins. You can also find them on wikipedia, but they're not very well drawn there, either. Fortunately, their appearance on the coinage is fairly consistent, once you learn to recognise them.
On your coin, the six symbols visible on this side, around the central hole, are (from left to right) two letters (abbreviation for "Buddhasakarat", the Thai word for "Buddhist Era") and the numbers 2 4 5 and 7.
To convert from Buddhist Era dates to AD dates, simply subtract 543. BE 2457 minus 543 equals AD 1914.

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
