EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a collection of exquisite gold coins from the reign of King Rama V, also known as Chulalongkorn. As the fifth monarch of Siam under the House of Chakri, King Rama V ruled from 1853 to 1910 and played a significant role in modernizing his kingdom. The round, flat coins featured in this image were introduced after 1860 when the first mint was established with a printing press gifted by Queen Victoria herself. Each coin is meticulously stamped and adorned with intricate decorative patterns, reflecting the exceptional craftsmanship prevalent during that era. These coins not only serve as a testament to Thailand's rich history but also symbolize its economic prosperity at that time. They represent an important chapter in Asian currency and metalwork, showcasing both their monetary value and artistic significance. Photographed by eLuca Tettoni, this stunning image captures every detail of these ornate treasures. The photograph is part of Bridgeman Images' extensive collection and is available for public use due to its out-of-copyright status. Whether you are an avid numismatist or simply appreciate fine artistry, this print offers a glimpse into Thailand's past while celebrating the beauty found within its currency.
