History

The currency was originally known as the tical; this name was used in the English language text on banknotes until 1925. English is a West Germanic language originating in England and is the First language for most people in the United Kingdom, the United States However, the name baht was established as the Thai name by the 19th century. Both tical and baht were originally units of weight and coins were issued in both silver and gold denominated by their weight in baht and its fractions and multiples.

Until 1897, the baht was subdivided into 8 fuang (เฟือง), each of 8 ath (อัฐ). Other denominations in use were:

Denomination	Thai	Value [1]	Alternate meaning
bia	เบี้ย	1⁄6400 Baht	cowrie; a very small amount of money; a counter used in gambling
solot	โสฬส or โสฬศ	1⁄128 Baht
att or ath	อัฐ	1⁄64 Baht
sio or py	เสี้ยว เซี่ยว or ไพ	1⁄32 Baht	a quarter (feuang)
sik	ซีก or สิ้ก	1⁄16 Baht	a section; a half (feuang)
feuang	เฟื้อง	1⁄8 Baht
salung	สลึง	1⁄4 Baht	a quarter (baht)
mayon	มายน or มะยง	1⁄2 Baht
baht	บาท	1 Baht	1 tical, from Portuguese, from Malay tikal [2]
tamleung (of silver)	ตำลึง (หน่วยเงิน)	4 baht	a gourd; weight of silver equal to four baht, or ~60 grams
chang	ชั่ง	20 tamleung or 80 baht	a catty ~1200 gram weight of silver; as a metric unit of weight, chang luang ชั่งหลวง = 600 grams
hap	หาบ	80 chang or 6400 baht	~96 kg of silver, roughly equivalent to the monetary talent; from the verb/noun (carry) a load (suspended at each end of a pole across the shoulder); as a metric unit of weight, hap luang หาบหลวง = ุ60 kg [3]

The present decimal system, in which 1 baht = 100 satang, was introduced by king Chulalongkorn in 1897. Cowry, also sometimes spelled cowrie, plural always cowries, is the Common name for a group of small to large sea Snails marine Jetons were Token or Coin -like medals produced across Europe from the 13th through the 17th centuries Catty is the English word for a traditional Chinese unit of Mass called a jīn ( Chinese characters: 斤) in Mandarin Chinese The talent ( Latin: talentum, from Ancient Greek: "scale balance" is an ancient unit of Mass. Chulalongkorn ( Rama V) (royal name Phra Chula Chomklao Chaoyuhua; พระบาทสมเด็จพระจุลจอมเกล้าเจ้าอยู่หัว However, coins denominated in the old units were issued until 1910. One hangover from the pre-decimalization system: the 25 satang (¼ baht) is still colloquially called a salueng or salung (สลึง). It is occasionally used for amounts not exceeding 10 salueng or 2. 50 baht. A 25-satang coin is also sometimes called salueng coin (เหรียญสลึง, pronounced 'rian salueng').

Until November 27, 1902, the tical was fixed on a purely silver basis, with 15 grams of silver to the baht. Events 1095 - Pope Urban II declares the First Crusade at the Council of Clermont Year 1902 ( MCMII) was a Common year starting on Wednesday (link will display calendar of the Gregorian calendar (or a Common year starting This caused the value of the currency to vary relative to currencies on a gold standard. The gold standard is a monetary system in which a region's common media of exchange are paper notes that are normally freely convertible into pre-set fixed quantities of Gold In 1857, the values of certain foreign silver coins were fixed in law, with the 1 baht = 0. 6 Straits dollar and 5 baht = 7 Indian rupees. The Straits dollar was the currency used in the British colonies and protectorates in Malaya and Borneo, including the Straits Settlements until The rupee (रुपया ( code: INR) is the Currency of India.

In 1902, the government began to increase the value of the baht by following all increases in the value of silver against gold but not reducing it when the silver price fell. Beginning at 21. 75 baht = 1 British pound, the currency rose in value until, in 1908, a fixed peg to the British pound was established of 13 baht = 1 pound.

World War II, or the Second World War, (often abbreviated WWII) was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including

Coins

Before 1860, Thailand did not produce coins using modern methods. Instead, a so-called "bullet" coinage was used, consisting of bars of metal, thicker in the middle, bent round to form a complete circle on which identifying marks were stamped. ^[1] Denominations issued included ¹⁄₁₂₈, ¹⁄₆₄, ¹⁄₃₂, ¹⁄₁₆, ⅛, ½, 1, 1½, 2, 2½, 4, 4½, 8, 10, 20, 40, and 80 baht in silver and ¹⁄₃₂, ¹⁄₁₆, ⅛, ½, 1, 1½, 2, and 4 baht in gold. Between 1858 and 1860, foreign trade coins were also stamped by the government for use in Thailand.

In 1860, modern style coins were introduced. These were silver 1 sik, 1 fuang, 1 and 2 salung, 1, 2 and 4 baht, with the baht weighing 15. 244 grams and the others weight related. Tin 1 solot and 1 att followed in 1862, with gold 2½, 4 and 8 baht introduced in 1863 and copper 2 and 4 att in 1865. Copper replaced tin in the 1 solot and 1 att in 1874, with copper 4 att introduced in 1876. The last gold coins were struck in 1895.

In 1897, the first coins denominated in satang were introduced, cupro-nickel 2½, 5, 10 and 20 satang. However, 1 solot, 1 and 2 att coins were struck until 1905 and 1 fuang coins were struck until 1910. In 1908, holed 1, 5 and 10 satang coins were introduced, with the 1 satang in bronze and the 5 and 10 satang in nickel. The 1 and 2 salung were replaced by 25 and 50 satang coins in 1915. In 1937, holed, bronze ½ satang were issued.

In 1941, a series of silver coins was introduced in denominations of 5, 10 and 20 satang, due to a shortage of nickel caused by WWII. World War II, or the Second World War, (often abbreviated WWII) was a global military conflict which involved a majority of the world's nations, including The next year, tin coins were introduced for 1, 5 and 10 satang, followed by 20 satang in 1945 and 25 and 50 satang in 1946. In 1950, aluminium-bronze 5, 10, 25 and 50 satang were introduced whilst, in 1957, bronze 5 and 10 satang were issued, along with 1 baht coins struck in an unusual alloy of copper, nickel, silver and zinc. It should be notes that several Thai coins were issued for many years without changing the date. These include the tin 1942 1 satang and the 1950 5 and 10 satang, struck until 1973, the tin 1946 25 satang struck until 1964, the tin 50 satang struck until 1957, and the aluminium bronze 1957 5, 10, 25 and 50 satang struck until the 1970s. Cupro-nickel 1 baht coins were introduced in 1962 and struck without date change until 1982.

In 1972, cupro-nickel 5 baht coins were introduced, switching to cupro-nickel-clad copper in 1977. Between 1986 and 1988, a new coinage was introduced, consisting of aluminium 1, 5 and 10 satang, aluminium-bronze 25 and 50 satang, cupro-nickel 1 baht, cupro-nickel-clad-copper 5 baht and bimetallic 10 baht. Cupro-nickel-clad-steel 2 baht were introduced in 2005.

It is considered rude to put baht banknotes in a wallet that sits in the back pocket, as this allows someone to sit on the image of the King, which is considered highly disrespectful. Similarly, stepping on a baht banknote (or coin) is considered disrespectful. Some shops in Thailand, especially in rural areas, display low-denomination banknotes in front of the shop, both as a charm for wealth and out of respect for the King.
