LAOS. Kingdom of Vientiane. Lat Money (67 pieces), ND (ca. 1707-1828). Grades VERY GOOD to FINE.
Mitchener-pg. 389. Weight: 56.58 gms. to 125.88 gms. An interesting gathering of Lat "Tiger tongue" money primarily consisting of copper alloy issues, but also includes what appears to be a silver bar (102.73 gms). An interesting aspect of these ingots is that the style of these appears to be somewhat of a cross between the Kingdom of Vientiane issues and the Kingdom of Luang Prabang issues. Each exhibits varying degrees of patina and varying degrees of minor earthen deposits. Close personal inspection is advised and will reward the diligent bidder. SOLD AS IS/NO RETURNS.

Sold by the Yale University Art Gallery for the benefit of acquisition funds or the Numismatic Collection.

Estimate: $1200 - $1600
