Hi everyone

Not sure what I have here, I think it is one, but I have no idea of the value / how to name it

1 Pei

1 Pai

Song Pai

1 Fuang

200 Bia

1 Salung

400 Bia

5 Pei

or something else from another country 

It is 22 MM weight of 5.6 Grams

Thanks in advance!

Is it cardboard or metal? If it is cardboard, it might just be a gaming chip. It is “one” of something as evidenced by the Thai character for “1”. However, it could also be of Cambodian origin as the Khmer “1” is the same. Where did you find this? knowing the provenance of a piece can tell us where and when it originated.

I'm no expert but it looks like a Thai gaming token.  Information on the porcelain tokens. https://southerncrosscoins.com.au/product/chinese-issued-siam-thai-porcelain-gambling-token-pair-c-1780s-1870s/
