Comment
Mahlo-24cInteresting fact
One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency in the Kingdom of Thaton (Mon Kingdoms) during the 7th century. The Mon Kingdoms were a group of kingdoms that existed in what is now Myanmar (Burma) and Thailand, and this coin was likely used for trade and commerce within the kingdom. The fact that it was made of silver suggests that it was a valuable and durable form of currency, and its weight of 9.60 grams indicates that it was a substantial coin.
