Interesting fact

One interesting fact about this coin is that it was used as a form of currency in the Sri Ksetra Kingdom, which was a powerful and influential empire in Southeast Asia during the 6th to 13th centuries. The coin's design and materials, such as the use of silver, reflect the kingdom's advanced economic and technological development during that time.
