MYANMAR (BURMA), Shan state. Uncertain insurgent army. Late 20th century. AV Eighth Tical (14mm, 1.94 g, 9h). Struck circa 1981. Stylized map of Shan state / 1/8 T; small leaf like devices to upper left and lower right. KM (X) 1. EF, lustrous.


From the collection of Dr. Lawrence A. Adams, purchased from Scott Semans, July 1986.

Dr. Adams notes: "Little is known about this issue and the possibility exists that they may be purely fantasy coins made by Bangkok goldsmiths. Scott Semans feels that they are a legitimate issue comparable to the rebel coins of the Patriotic Liberation Army issued in 1971."
