Interesting fact

One interesting fact about the 1 Baht - Rama IV ND (1863) gold coin from Thailand is that it features a unique blend of traditional Thai and Western design elements. The obverse side of the coin depicts a portrait of King Rama IV in a traditional Thai style, while the reverse side features a Western-style wreath surrounding the Thai symbol for "Baht." This blending of styles reflects the cultural exchange and influence that occurred during King Rama IV's reign, which saw the introduction of Western ideas and technology to Thailand.
