MYANMAR (BURMA), Shan state. Uncertain insurgent army. Late 20th century. AV Quarter Tical (17mm, 3.82 g, 12h). Struck circa 1981. Stylized map of Shan state / 1[/4 T; small leaf like devices to upper left and lower right]. KM (X) 2. EF, lustrous, reverse weakly struck.


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."
