December 26, 200619 yr I have an old Thai coin, which looks more like a paperweight, that I want to sell. Does anyone know where I can sell it? I think it's about 240 years old. There used to be one, years ago, fairly near the Oriental - is it still there? Edited December 26, 200619 yr by Neeranam
December 26, 200619 yr Ta Chang boat pier and the road that leads out to Sanam Luang. They have it all on the sidewalks and shops.
December 26, 200619 yr Almost forgot. In addition to Bangkok's big weekend market, there are other retail locales with less savory reputations. The Nakhon Kasem market in Chinatown is still referred to colloquially as the "Thieves' Market" due to its beginnings as a massive outlet for fencing stolen goods. Now you're just as likely to find piles of odious crap like busted calculators or shredded tires, but there are also vendors who specialize in "pre-aged" antiques (i.e. "antiques") and other fine imitation work. And the Thieves' Market runs every day, though it does get busier on weekends.
December 26, 200619 yr Upcountry I have seen old coins being traded in the shops that deal in Buddha amulets.
December 26, 200619 yr Upcountry I have seen old coins being traded in the shops that deal in Buddha amulets. They are very costly to buy but when you sell you will be lucky to get two baht.

January 3, 200719 yr Author Went to River City and found out it's from Sukothai period(I think that's 700 years ago) but not worth as much as I thought - maybe 5,000 baht. Think I'll keep it. Edited January 3, 200719 yr by Neeranam
January 3, 200719 yr If it is nice stick it in a holder of some sort and display it, a lot of people think they are good luck.
