Small Coin ID Help

[Catsman]

Hi Everyone, This small coin was found on 5/21 at a Fairgrounds. It was at 5 inches and the Vdi was a solid 24 nickle/ring on my Xlt. Found a little clad also. The fairgrounds was being used so I couldn't hunt it all. HH Catsman ( Rex )

My Best guess? Far east, Vietnam , Thailand?

Could be an older Bhat from Thailand. That's my best guess. GL

I am curios as to what metal was used to make this coin since it registered at 24 nickl/ring. Thanks. Catsman

It is from Thailand. Better hold on to it. If the government continues to implode, all Thai coins might go up
considerable. Good find!!!

For sure, it's a Thai coin; a 'satang' if between 15 and 18mm; or a 'baht' if between 20 and 26 mm. Most of the 'satangs' are of aluminum, the 'bahts' of a copper/nickle combinations. The image is of HM King Bhumibol Adulyade (Rama IX)--in his younger days-- if the coin is dated 1946 or later.
