Interesting fact
One interesting fact about the Pattern 1 Satang - Rama V (Tin Pattern) 128 (1909) from Thailand made of Brass is that it features a unique blend of traditional Thai design elements and Western-style numismatic features. The obverse of the coin depicts a portrait of King Rama V in a traditional Thai style, while the reverse features a depiction of the Garuda, a mythical creature from Thai mythology, surrounded by a wreath of lotus flowers.
