| 正面描述 | Distinctive elongated canoe-shaped or bullet-form silver flan with three impressed punch marks applied to the flat upper surface. The central punch displays a standing elephant in profile facing left, a symbol of royal authority in the Lan Xang kingdom. To the left of the elephant is a circular rosette or floral punch mark, and to the right a further decorative punch of foliate or conch-shell character. All three devices are incuse impressions stamped into the cast silver surface, consistent with Southeast Asian bullet coinage traditions of the period. |

Lan Xang — "Land of a Million Elephants" — was founded by Fa Ngum in 1353 after he unified the Lao principalities with Khmer military backing. These bullet-style silver pieces circulated across a landlocked kingdom that controlled critical overland trade routes between China, Siam, and Vietnam for over two centuries. The monetary system was weight-based, calibrated to the tamlung and its fractions, functioning simultaneously as currency and as a store of value acceptable across regional borders regardless of issuing authority.
The kingdom fragmented in 1571 following succession disputes and Burmese military pressure, ending centralized production of this type.
