| Obverse description | The obverse face of this pod duang (bullet coin) bears two impressed royal seal marks applied by hammer dies onto the convex surface of the folded silver planchet. The upper mark depicts the Chakra (discus), the sacred wheel emblem of the Chakri dynasty, rendered with a serrated outer rim encircling a central ring. Immediately below appears the Mongkut (crown), the personal royal cypher of King Rama IV (King Mongkut), shown as a stylised crown surmounting a decorative base with flanking foliate scrolls. Both devices are deeply incuse into the rounded silver surface, characteristic of Thai bullet coinage of the mid-nineteenth century. |
