Interesting fact
The 1 Fueang coin from Thailand, minted during the reign of King Rama IV in 1860, is interesting because it was made of silver, which was a significant departure from the usual copper or bronze used for circulating coins at that time. This decision to use silver was likely influenced by the country's desire to align its currency with the silver standard used by many other nations, and it reflects Thailand's efforts to modernize and integrate with the global economy during the 19th century.
