agandau Valued Member Australia 193 Posts	Posted 08/13/2011 7:36 pm If it has a date it will have the date written in Thai. The photo is too small to see if it does or not. If it does, use the following link to work it out. http://dateconverter.net/thai/?hl=en Report this Post to the Staff

The denomination is 10 satang, and made of solid tin. The date on the coin is Buddhist Era year 2493, which equates to 1950 AD. The coin is listed in the Krause world coin catalogue as number KM/Y# 73. NGC page for this coin; WCG page for this coin. However, these coins were struck from 1954 right up to 1973, all bearing the same "2493" date. There's no way to tell what year within that time period your coin was actually struck in, so in that sense you are correct in that it doesn't have a date. 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
