Does anyone know where or how I can traslate the wording on a Thai Baht? I have 2 of them & am trying to figure out what the dates are on them.
Thanks!
Robin

    Robin,
    My son reads Thai very well. If you can post a scan of the coin I can get it translated.

    The Thai dating system is based on the Buddhist era system where, for example, BE 2500 = 1957 AD.

    Brad...Well I have NO hope of trying to figure that one out on my own...lol

    Don...I appreciate the offer. Now I just need to figure out how to post a pic on here. Our scanner isn't working but I'll try & take a digital pic of them (there are 2) & see how that goes. If I'm unable to post them for whatever reason I'll PM you & maybe email it to you? Thanks again for the offer of help...I'll be in touch.

    You might also try a library for a copy of the Standard Catalog of World Coins for comparison pictures, values and lots more interesting info.
