Beschrijving voorzijde Incuse conch shell (Sankha) device struck in the center of the flat face of this irregular hammered silver bullet-shaped planchet. The conch shell motif, a sacred Buddhist and royal symbol of Ayutthaya, is rendered in low relief within a recessed field, with its characteristic spiral whorls visible. The surrounding field is plain and irregular, consistent with the hand-hammered pod duang coinage tradition of the Kingdom of Ayutthaya.

Aanvullende informatie

Phetracha seized the Siamese throne in 1688 by exploiting the chaos surrounding the expulsion of French forces and the death of King Narai, executing Narai's French-educated heir in the process. His reign was defined by isolationism and a sharp reversal of the cosmopolitan policies that had brought European influence deep into Ayutthaya. Pod duang coinage of this period circulated in a kingdom that had deliberately closed itself to foreign traders, meaning these pieces moved almost entirely within domestic markets.
