David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1617 Posts	Posted 11/26/2022 4:02 pm Hi all, This landed among a bunch of mixed coins. At first I thought it was a newer coin but now I'm not sure if it's even a coin. Date is 1995. Made from aluminium. Diam. 17.5 Any ideas? Report this Post to the Staff

David Graham Pillar of the Community Australia 1617 Posts	Posted 11/26/2022 6:58 pm @keith12 That's the coin. In my stupidity I had Non-circulating coins unchecked on the search. I am wondering why this coin was minted to begin with, and over 20 years? Report this Post to the Staff

publius Pillar of the Community United States 807 Posts	Posted 06/09/2023 12:20 pm It was probably minted to be included in mint sets. 10 satang, 1/10th of a baht, hasn't been enough money to do anything with for a long time. Report this Post to the Staff
Sap Moderator Australia 16898 Posts	Posted 06/10/2023 09:55 am It's my understanding that Thailand mints "circulation" 10 satang coins, but banks in Thailand refuse to give them out to the public except for exceptional circumstances eg. if a customer is closing their account, they will get paid out to the nearest satang. But you can't just go in and order a bagful of 10 satang coins. So in that sense, they aren't really "circulation coins". They remain in the banking system, where physical cash is still used to conduct intra-bank and inter-bank business. 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
