| Beschrijving keerzijde | Large denomination numeral '๑๐' (10) in Thai script rendered prominently in the central field, enclosed within a symmetrical wreath of laurel or floral branches tied at the base with a ribbon bow. The Thai-script inscription 'สิบสตางค์' (Ten Satang) is placed along the upper arc of the coin, framing the composition in a clean, formal arrangement typical of late nineteenth-century Siamese coinage. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
Thailand's first copper-nickel coins were introduced under Rama V as part of his sweeping modernization of Siamese monetary infrastructure — a direct response to pressure from European colonial powers who viewed currency chaos as justification for intervention. The 10 Satang of 1897 was struck at the Royal Mint in Birmingham, England, as Siam lacked domestic minting capacity for base-metal coinage at scale.
Birmingham's involvement was not incidental. The contract reflected a broader British commercial foothold in Siamese affairs during a period when France had already seized Laos in 1893.
