LeonB Posted March 5, 2008 Report Share Posted March 5, 2008 My dad picked these up in Thailand back in the '70s or '80s. The explanation on the back reads: Porcelain Pees were originally used as gambling tokens in Siam. Until probably in 1737-1875, the Siamese Government adopted them as her national currencies--in small changes. Their denominations were in 1 Solot, 1 Att, 2 Pies, 1 Fueng, 1 Salueng (25 satangs). Anyone know anything about these things? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
