Collectible Thai Coin Appraisal

Thai Bimetallic Baht Coin

This item is a bimetallic coin, typically round, composed of two distinct metals, giving it a two-tone appearance. The central part is a golden-colored alloy, likely brass or bronze, and features a raised, detailed profile portrait of a male figure, presumably a monarch or significant historical personality, facing left. The outer ring is a silvery-colored metal, possibly nickel or a cupronickel alloy. Raised inscriptions in what appears to be Thai script are visible encircling the central golden disc, both on the golden inner section and the silver outer ring, indicating its origin. The coin shows visible signs of circulation, including typical wear on the raised surfaces, minor scratches, and some discoloration consistent with age and handling. There is no significant damage such as large dents or deep gouges, suggesting it is in good, circulated condition. The craftsmanship appears to be of standard monetary production quality, with clear detailing on the portrait and legible script. Given the imagery and script, it is highly likely a modern Thai Baht coin, possibly a 10 Baht coin, which commonly features the reigning monarch. The estimated age would be contemporary, likely late 20th to early 21st century.
