Trivia: The 10 baht coin and the 2 euro coin are identical, even vending machine's confuse them.Notjim 18:09, 11 Mar 2005 (UTC)
- Not identical, but very similar in size and layout. However the weight is slightly different, and AFAIK most vending machines are now upgraded to recognize the difference. andy 21:03, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
What does "in bank circulation" on the coin section mean? Nik42 05:08, 26 August 2005 (UTC)
- As a native Thai, I never seen any 10, 5 or 1 satang coin in public circulation. The smallest coin we ever use in everyday life is 25 satang. -- Bact 18:34, 20 September 2005 (UTC)
- It means it's only for accounting purpose in bank where 1 satang could matter. It's not use in normal everyday life. You can get those from Royal Thai Mint but you don't have any chance to use them at their face value. -- Lerdsuwa 14:34, 28 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] The Photo of a new TWO-BAHT Coin!

[edit] Unicode
Why is the currency symbol "Thai Baht" not in the "Currency symbols" block of Unicode encoded? --84.61.3.61 18:23, 10 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Naming
Is this the correct title? Surely it isn't called the "Thai baht" and should thus be either at baht or baht (currency). violet/riga (t) 11:00, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
- It is the consensus of Wikipedia:WikiProject Numismatics to use <Adjectival country name> <denomination> --Chochopk 12:07, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
-
- Even when there is only one currency with that name? Suppose its consistent. violet/riga (t) 21:51, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
No mention of the de-linking of the Baht from the U.S. dollar triggering a huge financial crises in East Asia in 1997? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Daveswahl (talk • contribs) 15:18, 25 January 2007 (UTC)
