Interesting fact
The 2 Lats (2 Tamlungs) coin from the Kingdom of Lan Xang (Laos) made of Billon and weighing 119.2g is interesting because it was used as a form of currency during the 16th to 18th centuries in Laos, and it features a unique blend of Lao and Thai designs on its obverse and reverse sides, showcasing the cultural exchange and influences between the two regions.
