Interesting fact

The ½ Fuang coin from Thailand, made of copper and issued during the reign of King Rama IV (1865), was part of a series of coins that were introduced to replace the earlier bronze coins. These coins were designed to be more durable and have a longer lifespan, and they featured a unique blend of Thai and Western design elements. The ½ Fuang coin, in particular, features a portrait of King Rama IV on one side and a depiction of a Thai temple on the other. This coin is a rare and valuable collector's item today, and its design reflects the rich cultural heritage of Thailand during that time period.
