Comments: This coin commemorates the 20th Anniversary of the Buddhist Fellowship.  Obverse features King Rama IX.  Reverse features the Dharmachakra or Buddhist wheel of law.  I have been the underbidder on this coin many times over the past few years.  Catalogue value says $30 but I usually see them going for $50 in lower MS grades and upwards of $100 in higher grades.  I was lucky to get this one for just over $50.  This adds a new country to my collection and is a birth year coin for me.
