TLDR : Answer Summary
The coin in question dates back to the Buddhist year 2467, which corresponds to 1924. It is a 0.25 Baht coin associated with King Rama VI, also known as Maha Vajiravudh. While it is considered a rare coin and potentially valuable if original, it's important to note that many copies exist in Thailand. The coin has been confirmed by users as being 100 years old and is made of silver.

Don't tell me, you bought it from some dude in the street who told you it was a rare coin? It's made from recycled Coca-Cola tins. 😆

 Long standing scam. Same as many other artifacts, they make them and bury them for a year or so. Google it.

 I totally understand what you mean but unfortunately I don’t understand the engravings on it…

I researched the coin though and I know it’s a Crown I believe and the English stole the silver for them from the Spanish in Lima
